Abstract
A meter device of a motorcycle decreases wind pressure caused by a travel wind without increased cost or design restrictions. A first portion of the meter device housing is positioned between the indicator portions and is inclined rearwardly upward to be directed above a rider's head. A second portion of the meter device housing is positioned forwardly of the indicator portions and is inclined rearwardly upward to be directed above the rider's head. In this manner, a front wall of the housing is curved in shape such that a central portion thereof in the vehicle width direction is positioned foremost and both sides thereof sweep back to produce a wind protection effect.
