Abstract
A scooter-type vehicle having a storage portion that is formed so as to open in a leg shield, and that is covered by a lid member. An upwardly open storage box is formed on a back surface of the lid member, and the storage box is openably and closably mounted on a lower portion of an opening of the storage portion via a hinge. An axis of the hinge is obliquely arranged such that, as viewed in a plan view, an outer side in the vehicle width direction of the axis of the hinge is positioned more on a front side in a longitudinal direction of the vehicle than a center side of the axis of the hinge in the vehicle width direction. The lid member moves so as to fall obliquely in the rearward and outward direction so that the lid member is opened while avoiding a rider's leg.
