Fuel tank for saddled vehicle

A fuel tank for a saddled vehicle comprising a fuel cap of an opening and closing type incorporating a breather mechanism,

• wherein the fuel cap is constituted to close an upper portion of a tubular member constituting a filler opening of the fuel tank,
• the breather mechanism is constituted to discharge vaporized fuel separated by gas-liquid separation in a labyrinth path within the fuel cap through a breather drain hose supported at a side of the fuel tank,
• the fuel tank further includes:
• a plate member provided on an upper surface of the fuel tank and fixed to a support member to support the fuel cap to the fuel tank;
• and
• a seal member to airtightly communicate an exit of the labyrinth path and an end portion of the breather drain hose when the fuel cap is closed, and
• the breather drain hose connected to a lower side of the seal member is supported by the plate member,
• wherein the support member is constituted so that at least one pedestal portion is attached on an upper surface of an annular base plate, the pedestal portion having two leg portions formed by folding a plate member into a substantially U-shape, and
• the breather drain hose is locked to a guide portion formed in the plate member at a position overlapping with the support member as seen in a plan view of the vehicle.
