referring first to fig1 a motor scooter constructed in accordance with an embodiment of the invention is identified generally by the reference numeral 11 . the motor scooter 11 includes a main body portion , indicated generally by the reference numeral 12 , from which a front wheel 13 and rear wheel 14 are suspended . the front wheel 13 is dirigibly supported by the main body portion 12 in a known manner by means that includes a front fork 15 that is steered by a handlebar assembly 16 . the rear wheel 14 underlies a rider &# 39 ; s seat 17 and is journalled by a suspension system , indicated generally by the reference numeral 18 and which includes a rear shock absorber 19 . an engine transmission assembly , indicated generally by the reference numeral 21 consists of an internal combustion engine 22 and a transmission 23 that drives the rear wheel 14 . this engine transmission assembly 21 is pivotally mounted on the main body portion 12 by the suspension system 18 in a suitable manner for accommodating the suspension movement of the rear wheel 14 . a foot area 24 is formed by the main body portion 12 forwardly of the seat 17 so that a rider seated on the seat may place his feet on the foot area 24 . the handlebar assembly 16 is enclosed by a cover comprised of a main cover portion 25 and which is shown in perspective view in fig3 and partially in top plan view in fig4 . fig2 is a cross sectional view through this assembly . referring now primarily to these figures ( fig2 - 4 ), it will be seen that the main cover portion 25 has a generally cylindrical shape with rounded end portions . a recessed area , indicated by the reference numeral 26 is formed in the upper central portion of this main cover portion 25 which is formed in part by a recessed or indented upper wall portion 27 that extends generally transversely across a substantial portion of the width of the main cover portion 25 and a second , forward lower wall portion 28 of the main cover 25 . the recessed area 26 and specifically the part thereof formed by the upper wall portion 27 receives a display assembly 29 which includes , among other things , a liquid crystal display 30 . this display assembly 29 is carried by a bracket member 31 which has its lower portion affixed to a vertically extending wall part 32 formed where the wall portions 27 and 28 are joined . a threaded fastener 33 holds this support bracket member 31 in position . as best seen in fig4 the bracket member 31 has a pair of leg portions 34 that extend rearwardly into the portion of the recessed area 26 formed by the upper wall portion 27 . a pair of female threaded fasteners 35 are imbedded in the case of the display assembly 29 . apertures in the leg portions 34 pass male threaded fasteners 36 with a rubber frictional washer 37 being interposed between the each of the bracket leg portions 34 and the sides of the case of the display assembly 29 . this fastener assembly , indicated generally by the reference numeral 38 functions to provide a pivot axis 39 about which the display assembly 29 and specifically the liquid crystal display 30 may be viewed . thus , the rider may adjust this display to his viewing preference merely by applying pressure on the upper surface of the display assembly 29 . it should be noted that the pivot axis 39 overlies an enlarged opening 41 formed in the upper wall portion 27 through which a wire harness 42 may be passed . this wire harness 42 has leads 43 that enter into the display assembly 29 in line with the pivot axis 39 so as to minimize the amount of bending of the leads 43 when the display is adjusted through its range of movement , indicated by the arrow a in fig2 . a quick disconnect coupling 44 connects the wire harness 42 to one or more sensors , shown schematically at 45 , that are mounted on the vehicle and sense conditions such as vehicle speed , engine speed or the like which are displayed on the liquid crystal display 30 . the forward part of the recessed area 26 formed in part by the lower wall portion 28 functions to provide a storage area , indicated generally by the reference numeral 46 in which small articles may be positioned one of which is shown in phantom in fig2 and is identified by the reference numeral 47 . upstanding walls 48 at opposite ends of the lower wall portion 28 carry pivot pins 49 on which a pivoted closure member 51 is supported . in its closed position , as shown in the solid line view of fig2 this closure member 51 covers the rear portion of the cavity in which the display assembly 29 is mounted so as to provide a neat appearance . in its opened position , when pivoted in the direction of the arrow b , the closure member 51 permits ease of access to the contents for insertion or removal . drain holes 52 and 53 are formed at lower portions of the upper wall portion 27 and lower wall 28 of the recessed area 26 . these holes 52 and 53 will allow any accumulated water to drain from these areas . in this embodiment , the elastic frictional washers 37 provide anti - rattle mounting for the display assembly 29 while holding it in its adjusted position . fig5 and 6 show another embodiment wherein a more positive locking is achieved . this achieved by forming the case of the display assembly 29 with a plurality of serrations 61 which cooperate with serrations 62 formed on the leg portions 34 of the mounting bracket member 31 . by tightening or loosening the threaded fasteners 36 in its engagement with the embedded nut 35 , it is possible to open the gap between these serrations or teeth as shown in the phantom line view in fig6 and permit adjustment to be made . when the fasteners 36 are again tightened into the nuts 35 , the display assembly 29 will be locked into its adjusted position . thus , from the foregoing description it should be readily apparent that the described construction permits a very neat appearing display as well as one that can be easily adjusted to permit convenient viewing by a wide variety of riders . in addition , the electrical wiring is connected to the display in such a way that it will undergo minimum flexure during adjustment . of course , the foregoing description is that of a preferred embodiment of the invention and various changes and modifications may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention , as defined by the appended claims .
