Zusammenfassung:The present teaching provides a straddled vehicle that is kept from increasing in size while including an air cleaner positioned in a place where the air cleaner is unlikely to suck in air that is heated by the heat emitted from the turbocharger and the catalyst unit during idling of the straddled vehicle. The air cleaner is positioned more upward than the catalyst unit, the rotation axis of the turbine wheel and the rotation axis of the compressor wheel. From a view in the leftward-rightward direction of the straddled vehicle, the air cleaner is positioned in line with at least one of the catalyst unit, the turbine wheel of the turbocharger or the compressor wheel of the turbocharger in an upward-downward direction of the straddled vehicle. The air cleaner is positioned entirely more leftward or rightward than the catalyst unit, the turbine wheel and the compressor wheel of the turbocharger. When a rider is sitting on the seat and has his or her left and right feet placed on the pair of left and right footrests, the air cleaner is positioned entirely more frontward than the left and right leg of the rider. When a rider is sitting on the seat and has his or her left and right feet placed on the pair of left and right footrests, from a view in the frontward-backward direction of the straddled vehicle, at least part of the air cleaner covers or is covered by the left or right leg of the rider.
