To enable, in a vehicle including a variable trail length mechanism, steering inertia to be reduced. A vehicle includes a vehicle body (10) and a front wheel that is disposed anterior to the vehicle body (10) and that is steerable about a steering axis (Cs). The vehicle body (10) includes a vehicle body frame (11) and a steering rotation unit (13) that is supported on the vehicle body frame (11) and that rotates about the steering axis (Cs). The vehicle includes a variable trail length mechanism (30). The variable trail length mechanism (30) includes an oscillation unit (41) that supports front forks (25L and 25R) that are disposed to be oscillatable in a fore-aft direction and that support the front wheel, and an electric motor (42) that oscillates the oscillation unit (41). The electric motor (42) is supported by the vehicle body (10).

[Object] To prevent the movement of a steering handle that is linked to the movement of a front wheel from being transmitted to the rider. [Solving Means] A vehicle includes a vehicle frame 11, a steering swivel unit 13 supported on a head pipe 17 of the vehicle frame 11 and angularly movable about a steering axis Cs, a front wheel angularly movable in unison with the steering swivel unit 13, and a steering handle 26 mounted on the steering swivel unit 13. The vehicle has a steering handle turning mechanism 540 that makes the steering handle 26 angularly movable about the steering axis Cs relatively to the steering swivel unit 13. The steering handle turning mechanism 540 includes a handle turning motor 543 for angularly moving the steering handle 26 about the steering axis Cs.

To allow to transmit a steering force from an assist steering system to a steering shaft even when a part of a steering force transmit system becomes unworkable in a steering system of a saddle-ride type vehicle including a front fork that includes a steering shaft at the upper end and supports a front wheel at the lower end, a steering arm that is attached to the steering shaft, a steering force transmit member that is turnably supported by a steering stem that is arranged in a body frame, and a steering system link that joins the steering arm and the steering force transmit member. Engage sections (38d, 72d) are arranged between the steering force transmit member (38) and the steering assist force transmit member (72), and the engage sections (38d, 72d) allow the steering force transmit member (38) and a steering assist force transmit member (72) to be engaged with each other so that the steering assist force transmit member (72) is turned around the steering stem (39) accompanying turning of the steering force transmit member (38).

Object To provide an inverted pendulum type vehicle that makes it possible to turn the vehicle easily even in a state in which no steering operation is performed. Solving Means A control device 21 of a vehicle 1 sets a target turning angular velocity ωz_cmd to a nonzero value not only when a predetermined steering operation is performed but also at least in an external force application state in which an external force for turning the vehicle 1 about a yaw axis is applied to the vehicle 1, and controls a first actuator device 8 and a second actuator device such that a second moving operation part 4 has a different velocity from a first moving operation part 3 in a left-right direction.

An inverted pendulum type vehicle having a tiltable rider mounting section includes a first travel operation unit and a second travel operation unit, which are disposed with an interval provided therebetween in the longitudinal direction and which are capable of traveling in all directions. In a situation wherein a predetermined representative point of the vehicle or the first travel operation unit is to be moved rightward or leftward, the traveling operations of the first travel operation unit and the second travel operation unit are controlled such that the travel velocity of the first travel operation unit and the travel velocity of the second travel operation unit in the lateral direction are different from each other so as to cause the vehicle to turn about a turn center at the rear of a ground contact point of the first travel operation unit.

In outputting a synthesized output by adjusting a yaw direction output and a roll direction output outputted from a displacement detection sensor (41) by an adjustment part respectively, a synthesized output in which the yaw direction output is larger than the roll direction output is outputted when a vehicle speed is low, and a synthesized output in which the roll direction output is larger than the yaw direction output is outputted when the vehicle speed is high. Accordingly, in either a case where the vehicle is traveling at a low speed or a case where the vehicle is traveling at a high speed, the displacement and the behavior of a motorcycle (10) can be detected with high accuracy thus eventually realizing a control of the posture of the motorcycle (10) with high accuracy.
