A hybrid motorcycle capable of mounting thereon a hybrid-type drive unit,
which does not project in a vehicle width direction and can be mounted
even on a motorcycle having a limited vehicle width, includes a power
distributing device positioned between a generator and a motor, and a
reduction device arranged rearwardly of the power distributing device. A
front end of a drive-wheel transmission device is journaled on a rear end
of a central storage casing so that a rear end side of the drive-wheel
transmission device is vertically swingable, and a rear wheel is
journaled on the rear end of the drive-wheel transmission device. The
power distributing device includes a sun gear, planetary gears, a
planetary carrier, and a ring gear. Further, a carrier shaft projects
from a rotor shaft and rotation of a crank shaft is transmitted through a
intermediate gear portion to the projecting end of the carrier shaft.
