Abstract
This study analyzes how structural flexibility affects the motorcycle weave mode using the energy flow method. As a result of examining the change of the effect mechanism by vehicle velocity, the effect mechanism is changed when the term that depends on vehicle velocity like gyroscopic torque affects the weave mode stability. On the other hand, the effect mechanism is not changed when the term that does not depend on vehicle velocity like the tire camber angle affects the stability.
