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.
