Abstract
To provide a multi-cylinder engine for a motorcycle, in which at least one of a plurality of engine valves provided in a cylinder head for each of combustion chambers corresponding to a plurality of cylinder bores arranged in the width direction of a body frame can be rested in a specific operational region by a hydraulic valve resting mechanism. A hydraulic control valve is provided for controlling the hydraulic pressure of working oil supplied to the valve resting mechanism and is mounted on the cylinder head. The length of the multi-cylinder engine along the width direction of the body frame is made as short as possible although the hydraulic control valve is mounted in the cylinder head. A hydraulic control valve is mounted on a side surface of a cylinder head to which a plurality of intake ports are opened along the longitudinal direction of a body frame.
