Abstract

A compact water cooled internal combustion engine for a vehicle wherein a water pump operated by a pump driving shaft is arranged on a crankcase cover for covering a lateral side of a crankcase, such that an axis of rotation of the water pump is coaxial with the pump driving shaft. A case member that forms a pump case of a water pump, together with a crankcase cover, and that rotatably supports a pump shaft of the water pump, is attached on an inner surface side of the crankcase cover.
