Abstract

A motorcycle having a front cowl provided at a front of the vehicle body is provided with a windscreen attached thereto. The front cowl is curved so as to project toward the front of the vehicle body and is mounted in a posture so as to extend toward the rear. A mounting plane inclined upward toward the rear is formed on the front surface of the front cowl, and the windscreen extends upwardly from the front cowl and is secured to the mounting plane with bolts so as to be capable of adjustment in the vertical direction. The aforementioned structure permits the mounting of the windscreen to the front cowl so as to be capable of adjustment in the vertical direction and to achieve a desirable windproofing effect. This structure enables the upper end of the windscreen to be moved linearly in the vertical direction and in the fore-and-aft direction.
