A first and second hanger bracket are attached to outer sides of the cylinder heads, respectively, and a third hanger bracket is attached substantially centrally on an outer side of the crankcase. In particular, the third bracket is preferably located within the loop of an endless belt passed around a generator which is fixedly attached to the outer side of the crankcase.
