A reserve tank layout structure of a motorcycle can secure a capacity of a reserve tank, and allow for easy checking of a remaining amount of a cooling water in the tank from the exterior. The layout structure is provided with a vehicle body frame, an engine supported by the vehicle body frame, a swing arm attached to the vehicle body frame so as to freely oscillate, a rear wheel supported by the swing arm, a wrapping transmission mechanism having an endless rope-like body wound between an output shaft of the engine and an axle of the rear wheel and transmitting power from the output shaft to the axle, and a reserve tank for storing cooling water of the engine, the reserve tank being disposed so that at least a part thereof is positioned at an inner peripheral side of the rope-like body.
