Abstract
To avoid exertion of an external force on a fuel tank as much as possible. A mounting structure of a fuel tank for a motorcycle provides a fuel tank that is disposed between a pair of left and right frame members of a vehicle body frame and the fuel tank is mounted on the vehicle body frame at a first mounting portion and second, third, and fourth mounting portions. The fuel tank is mounted at each of the mounting portions via a plurality of tubular resilient bodies. The first mounting portion allows resilient support in the fore-and-aft direction and in the vertical direction of the vehicle and limits the lateral movement. The second, third, and fourth mounting portions allow resilient support in the fore-and-aft direction and in the vertical direction of the vehicle.
