Abstract

A scooter vehicle includes a steering handlebar, a radiator disposed under a seat, a step floor disposed between the steering handlebar and the scat, and a leg shield disposed forward of the step floor. The leg shield includes an upper portion protruding toward a rider side which includes a stuff box portion that shields the legs of the rider. The leg shield also is provided with an opening portion serving as a feed-water port for the radiator. The opening portion is covered by a cover member extending along a tunnel portion of the step floor in a back and forth direction of a vehicle body. The resulting configuration reduces the length of a feed-water pipe, thereby enhancing the ability to perform maintenance of the radiator.
