Abstract
To allow linking a fuel cock and an engine switch with a simple configuration and reducing residual fuel, a switch plate (link component) that links a fuel cock and an engine switch is provided. The switch plate includes: an extending portion (switch operation portion) pressed by a cam, which rotates integrally with the fuel cock, to switch off the engine switch when the fuel cock is further rotated beyond a position where the fuel cock is switched from ON to OFF; and a cam contact wall where the cam comes into contact to change rotational resistance of the fuel cock to allow providing a predetermined operation feeling when the fuel cock further rotates beyond the position where the fuel cock is switched from ON to OFF.
