Abstract:
The present invention provides a motorcycle having a valve-operating mechanism for actuating a valve which opens and closes a combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine. The valve-operating mechanism includes a biasing means for biasing the valve toward a valve closing direction and a drive means for driving the valve toward the valve opening direction against the biasing means, the biasing means is a gas spring formed by filling a gas spring chamber with compressible gas, and a compressed-gas container for supplying the compressible gas is connected to the gas spring chamber, and the compressed-gas container is disposed in an outermost line of body components of the motorcycle except for the compressed-gas container when the motorcycle is viewed from above.
