Abstract
To further enhance the durability of a fuel injection apparatus, to protect the fuel injection apparatus from external force by a simple configuration and to make it possible to readily perform an assembling operation or a maintenance or inspection operation of an engine on which the fuel injection apparatus is mounted. A motorcycle includes an engine having a cylinder extending forwardly and substantially horizontally. An intake port extends substantially rearwardly from an upper portion of a cylinder head of the engine, and a fuel injection apparatus for injecting fuel into a combustion chamber through the intake port, is disposed in the proximity of the cylinder head. A mounting boss is provided on an outer face of the intake port rearwardly of the fuel injection apparatus. The fuel injection apparatus is mounted on the mounting boss.
