Abstract
A scooter type motorcycle includes a rear fork for supporting a rear wheel of the motorcycle. A front portion of the rear fork is attached to a crankcase of an engine in a vertically swingable manner. The engine is mounted to a body frame through elastic members. The mounting arrangement enhances the comfort of the ride of the motorcycle by reducing vibrations from being transmitted from the rear wheel to the rider.
