According to this configuration, since the grip portion 71 is provided inside the air passage 61 of the rectifying member 60, the rectifying member 60 and the grip portion 71 can be arranged compactly, and the grip portion 71 is hidden inside the air passage 61 without being conspicuous, so that the appearance can be improved.

Further, a 2 nd grip portion 72 is provided behind the grip portion 71. With this configuration, the fellow passenger can select and use the grip 71 and the No. 2 grip 72 according to the physique and preference.

The 2 nd grip 72 is covered by a tail cover 57 which is a cover different from the fairing 60. With this configuration, the fellow passenger can easily distinguish the positions of the grip 71 and the 2 nd grip 72 according to the positions of the rectification member 60 and the tail cover 57.

The grip 71 and the 2 nd grip 72 are supported by a support member 73 common to the grip 71 and the 2 nd grip 72. Therefore, the support member 73 can be a single member, and the number of components can be reduced.

Further, a pair of left and right seat frames 20 for supporting the passenger seat 14 and a cross member 20a connecting the left and right seat frames 20 are provided, and the support member 73 is fixed to the seat frame 20. According to this configuration, since the support member 73 is not fixed to the cross member 20a but fixed to the seat frame 20, the rigidity of the grip portion 71 can be ensured without particularly reinforcing the cross member 20a for the grip portion 71.

The flow regulating member 60 includes a rear opening 63 that opens the air passage 61 rearward, and the grip 71 is provided between the opening 62 and the rear opening 63. According to this configuration, the grip portion 71 is hidden and inconspicuous between the opening 62 and the rear surface opening 63 inside the ventilation passage 61, and the appearance can be improved.

Further, since the grip portion 71 is a concave portion that is recessed upward from the inner surface of the upper portion of the ventilation passage 61, the grip portion 71 can be easily gripped by the passenger, and the size of the ventilation passage 61 can be enlarged by the concave portion, thereby improving the flow rectification effect.

The rear surface opening 63 is inclined so as to be lower in front and higher in rear view in side view of the vehicle, and a grip portion 71 as a recessed portion is provided inside the rear portion of the rear surface opening 63. According to this configuration, the rectification member 60 can be designed to have a sharp shape with a low front and a high rear, and the grip portion 71 can be easily gripped without excessively increasing the depth of the recess of the grip portion 71.

The above embodiment shows an embodiment to which the present invention is applied, and the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment.

In the above embodiment, the motorcycle 1 was described as an example of the saddle-ride type vehicle, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the present invention can be applied to a three-wheeled saddle-ride type vehicle having two front wheels or two rear wheels, and a saddle-ride type vehicle having wheels of four or more wheels.
