Abstract

A saddle-type vehicle for operation on irregular and uneven ground, wherein a pair of rear suspension arm assemblies each connected pivotally to the rear part of a main frame of the vehicle. The assemblies have suspension arm portions connected operatively at their middle points to the lower end of a shock absorber, and rear end portions disposed at a higher and/or inner position than front end portion thereof. The main frame has a pair of lower tubes connected rigidly with a corresponding pair of upper tubes by way of connecting members. The pair of lower tubes are formed at their midway portions to provide holding members for the front end portions of the suspension and these holding members are directed in the same direction as swing axes for the suspension assemblies.
