Abstract
A motorcycle includes a supercharger to pressurize an intake air and supplying it to a combustion engine and an air intake chamber disposed downstream of the supercharger. The air intake chamber is made of a metallic material and has a capacity of an interior space thereof which is within the range of three to eight times the displacement of the combustion engine. The dimension from an upstream end portion on an inlet side of the interior space of the air intake chamber to a downstream end portion on an outlet side of the interior space of such air intake chamber is chosen to be three or more times the inner diameter of an outlet.
