To enable, in a vehicle including a variable trail length mechanism, a trail length to be changed easily. A vehicle includes a vehicle body (10), a front wheel that is disposed anterior to the vehicle body (10) and that is steerable about a steering axis (Cs), and a front fork (25L, 25R) that supports the front wheel. The vehicle body (10) includes a vehicle body frame (11) and a steering rotation unit (13) that is supported on the vehicle body frame (11) and that rotates about the steering axis (Cs). The vehicle includes a variable trail length mechanism (30). The variable trail length mechanism (30) includes an oscillation shaft (48) that extends in a vehicle width direction to thereby connect the front fork (25L, 25R) oscillatably with the steering rotation unit (13). The oscillation shaft (48) is disposed at a position overlapping an axis (25a) of the front fork in a vehicle side elevational view.
