Abstract
To prevent damage, for example, to a rear side cover that covers a seat rail from outward in a vehicle width direction, a motorcycle is disclosed having a glove bar fixed to seat rails and configured to be grasped by a fellow passenger seated on a seat. The glove bar may include a support portion fixed to the seat rails to extend outward in a motorcycle width direction and above rear side covers, grips supported by the support portion to extend rearwardly of the seat and configured to be grasped by the fellow passenger, and protective bar portions of a cantilevered structure supported by portions of the support portion positioned above the rear side cover and passing above the rear side covers to extend forward in the motorcycle width direction to protect the rear side covers.
