以下、図中の矢印Fは車両100の前方向を示し、矢印Bは車両100の後方向を示す。矢印Uは車両100の上方向を示し、矢印Dは車両100の下方向を示す。矢印Rは車両100の右方向を示し、矢印Lは車両100の左方向を示す。なお、車両100は、車体フレーム110を鉛直に対して車両100の左右方向に傾斜させて旋回する。そこで、車両100の方向とは別に車体フレーム110を基準とした方向を定めている。図中の矢印FFは車体フレーム110を基準とした前方向を示し、矢印FBは車体フレーム110を基準とした後方向を示す。矢印FUは車体フレーム110を基準とした上方向を示し、矢印FDは車体フレーム110を基準とした下方向を示す。矢印FRは車体フレーム110を基準とした右方向を示し、矢印FLは車体フレーム110を基準とした左方向を示す。明細書において、車両100の前後方向、車両100の上下方向、車両100の左右方向とは、車両100を運転する乗員から見た前後、左右、上下の方向であり、車両100を基準とした方向である。また、明細書において、車体フレーム110の前後方向、車体フレーム110の上下方向、車体フレーム110の左右方向とは、車両100を運転する乗員から見た前後、左右、上下の方向であり、車体フレーム110を基準とした方向である。車幅方向中央とは、車両100の左右方向の車幅の中央を意味する。言い換えると、車両100の左右方向中央のことである。また、明細書において、直立状態とは、車体フレーム110の上下方向が鉛直と一致している状態であり、且つ、ハンドル160が転舵していない状態を示す。ハンドル160が転舵していない状態とは、平面視で左前輪131Lおよび右前輪131Rの回転軸が車体フレーム110の前後方向に直交する状態を示す。ハンドル160が転舵していない状態とは、言い換えれば、図9に示すように、ステアリングシャフト161を回転させていない状態、または、ハンドル160が回転していない状態である。直立状態では、車両100の方向と車体フレーム110の方向は一致する。なお、車体フレーム110を鉛直に対して左右方向に傾斜させて旋回しているときは、車両100の左右方向と車体フレーム110の左右方向は一致しない。また、車両100の上下方向と車体フレーム110の上下方向も一致しない。しかし、車両100の前後方向と車体フレーム110の前後方向は一致する。
図4は、左前輪、右前輪、リンク機構およびその周辺を示す正面図である。図5は、左前輪、右前輪、リンク機構およびその周辺を示す平面図である。図6は、車両が傾斜したときのリンク機構およびその周辺の状態を示す正面図である。図7は、ハンドルの向きを変えたときのリンク機構およびその周辺の状態を示す平面図である。
ハンドル160と左前輪131Lおよび右前輪131Rとの間には、操舵機構が設けられている。操舵機構は、ステアリングシャフト161、中央操舵アーム162(図7を参照)、タイロッド165、左操舵アーム163、右操舵アーム164、左緩衝装置150L、および、右緩衝装置150Rを有している。

車体フレーム110が直立状態で、車体フレーム110の上下方向において、クランクケース部171(図3参照)は、右前輪131R、左前輪131Lおよび後輪134の上端より下方に配置されている。
車体フレーム110が直立状態で、車体フレーム110の上下方向において、シート180の着座面181は、リンク機構140の上クロスメンバ141の上端(図8の水平線V2)と、下クロスメンバ142の下端(図8の水平線V1)との間に配置されている。また、車体フレーム110の前後方向において、着座面181は、パワーユニット170のクランクケース部171(図8参照)の前端およびトランスミッションケース部172(図8参照)の前端のうちより前端の方と、後輪134の後端と、の間に配置されている。
重い部品270は、車体フレーム110が直立状態の側面視で、図8の仮想線F1,F2と、上軸線Aと、下軸線Cとの囲まれる範囲に配置される。重い部品270の一部が上軸線Aの下方且つ下軸線Cの上方に配置され、重い部品270の残りの部分が下軸線Cの下方に配置されている。仮想線F1,F2については、後述する。
図8は、燃料タンク210の配置を説明する側面図である。図9は、燃料タンク210の配置を説明する平面図である。図8においては、車両100が左右方向に傾斜したときの左前輪131Lと右前輪131Rとを2点鎖線で示している。図9においては、車両100の外装を破線で示している。
図10には、運転者が乗車した状態の車両重心を示す側面図である。図10においては、車両100が左右方向に傾斜したときの左前輪131Lと右前輪131Rとを2点鎖線で示している。
