Abstract
In a motorcycle, the vehicle body frame includes main frames which are inclined rearwardly and downwardly directly towards a rear portion of a vehicle body from a head pipe with the engine being arranged close to an inclined portion of the vehicle body frame and the fuel injection device is overlapped to the main frames. In a fuel injection type engine including a cylinder head, a throttle body has an intake passage leading to an intake port and a fuel injection valve which injects fuel towards the intake port, the throttle body can be arranged close to a cylinder head and, at the same time, the fuel injection valve can be cooled effectively. A connecting sleeve portion projects further outwardly relative to a joint portion of a cylinder head and a head cover and forms an inlet portion of an intake port that is integrally formed with the cylinder head.
