A cooling structure for a saddle-type vehicle includes a main frame; an engine; an exhaust pipe extending rearward from a front portion of the engine; fuel tanks disposed laterally of the engine; and a skid plate covering front portions of the engine and the exhaust pipe. The skid plate includes openings defined in a central upper portion thereof for introducing ram air from a front of the vehicle toward the engine. The openings are covered with a mesh member. The skid plate has first bulging portions bulging forwardly on both sides of the openings. The fuel tanks include bulging tank portions disposed rearward of and along the first bulging portions and covering front portions of the engine. Ram air guided toward a central area in a vehicle widthwise direction by the first bulging portions passes through the mesh member and the openings to cool the exhaust pipe and the engine.
