Abstract:

To provide a motorcycle including a GPS unit disposed at a position unsusceptible to receive sensitivity deterioration.

The GPS unit 2 includes an antenna to receive GPS signals from a GPS satellite; a GPS receiver to calculate positional information based on the GPS signals; and a position transmitter to transmit position signals indicating the positional information. The GPS unit 2 is disposed rearward of a seat 15, thereby suppressing receive sensitivity deterioration due to a rider. The GPS unit 2 is disposed above a tail light 21, and the antenna within the GPS unit 2 is disposed at a position higher than a rear frame 10B. It is therefore capable of suppressing receive sensitivity deterioration due to the tail light 21 and the rear frame 10B.
