Abstract
A saddle-ride type vehicle is capable of reducing influence of travelling wind on an open end of an air hose, thus preventing fluctuations in the internal pressure of a float chamber of a carburetor. The saddle-ride type vehicle includes a carburetor placed rearward of an engine and an air cleaner placed rearward of the carburetor. An air hose configured to regulate the internal pressure of a float chamber of the carburetor is connected to the carburetor. A recessed portion is provided at a side wall of an air-cleaner case of the air cleaner, the side wall being located along a lateral side of the vehicle. An open end of the air hose is placed at the recessed portion of the air-cleaner case.
