Abstract
A saddle type vehicle includes a vehicle body frame with an engine and a seat supported on the vehicle body frame, a fuel tank disposed below the seat for storing fuel for the engine, a fuel pump disposed at a lower portion of the fuel tank for supplying the fuel to the engine, a regulator disposed below the fuel tank, a heat guard member disposed between the regulator and the fuel pump for blocking heat transfer, and a rear fender disposed below the regulator. By this structure the fuel tank need not be swollen downwardly by a great amount, and shaping of the fuel tank is facilitated.
