Source
A leaning vehicle (1) includes a link mechanism (20) supported on a vehicle body frame (10), a left front wheel (3L) and a right front wheel (3R) supported on the link mechanism (20), and an inertial measurement unit (IMU) (6). The link mechanism (20) includes an upper arm (21) and a lower arm (22) rotatably supported on the head pipe (11), and a left side member (23) and a right side member (24) rotatably supported on the upper arm (21) and the lower arm (22). The IMU (6) is arranged downward relative to the upper end of the upper arm (21), upward relative to the lower end of the lower arm (22), rightward relative to the left end of the left side member (23), leftward relative to the right end of the right side member (24), and rearward relative to the front end (5f) of a seat (5). The leaning vehicle (1) includes an actuator (31) that rotates the upper arm (21) and the lower arm (22), and a control device (36) that receives a signal from the IMU (6) to control the actuator (31).
