A motorcycle including a frame having a top, a bottom, a front, a rear, and a centrally-located longitudinal axis extending through the front and the rear. The longitudinal axis defines a vertical plane. The motorcycle also includes an engine supported by the frame and a radiator coil obliquely mounted to the frame. The radiator coil is spaced apart from the vertical plane and includes a forward end and a rearward end as viewed from above the motorcycle. The forward end defines a first distance measured normal to the vertical plane and the rearward end defines a second distance measured normal to the vertical plane. The first distance is shorter than the second distance.

What is claimed is: 1. A motorcycle comprising: a frame having a top, a bottom, a front, a rear, and a centrally-located longitudinal axis extending through the front and the rear, the longitudinal axis defining a vertical plane; an engine supported by the frame; and a radiator coil obliquely mounted to the frame, the radiator coil spaced apart from the vertical plane and including a forward end and a rearward end as viewed from above the motorcycle, the forward end defining a first distance measured normal to the vertical plane and the rearward end defining a second distance measured normal to the vertical plane, the first distance being shorter than the second distance; wherein the radiator includes a top edge and a bottom edge, and wherein the top edge is closer to the vertical plane than the bottom edge. 2. The motorcycle of claim 1, wherein the rearward end is positioned generally higher than the forward end. 3. The motorcycle of claim 1, wherein the radiator coil is positioned at a height substantially equal to the top half of the engine. 4. The motorcycle of claim 1, further comprising a shroud coupled to the frame and surrounding at least a portion of the radiator coil, the shroud having a forward end portion opening in a forward direction and a rearward end portion opening toward the longitudinal axis. 5. The motorcycle of claim 1, wherein the radiator coil is a first radiator coil, and wherein the motorcycle further comprises a second radiator coil obliquely mounted to the frame on an opposite side of the frame than the first radiator coil, the second radiator coil spaced apart from the vertical plane and including a forward end and a rearward end as viewed from the top of the motorcycle, the forward end of the second radiator coil defining a third distance measured normal to the vertical plane and the rearward end of the second radiator coil defining a fourth distance measured normal to the vertical plane, the third distance being shorter than the fourth distance. 6. The motorcycle of claim 5, wherein the rearward end of the first radiator coil is positioned generally higher than the forward end of the first radiator coil, and wherein the rearward end of the second radiator coil is positioned generally higher than the forward end second radiator coil. 7. The motorcycle of claim 5, wherein the second radiator coil includes a second top edge and a second bottom edge, the second top edge being closer to the vertical plane than the second bottom edge. 8. The motorcycle of claim 5, wherein the first radiator coil and the second radiator coil are symmetrically spaced apart from the vertical plane on opposite sides of the frame.
