Abstract
Motorcycle has a fuel tank formed with a fueling port which is closed by a filler cap. The filler cap comprises an outer and inner cap discs which are adapted to be engaged respectively with an outer and inner cap seats so as to define a buffer chamber between the cap discs. A vent hole is formed to open the inside of the tank to the buffer chamber which is in turn connected with a canister containing activated carbon particles. The buffer chamber functions to receive liquid fuel when the motorcycle is turned over and prevent the liquid fuel from passing to the canister.
