The cover includes a pair of rear-side turn signal lamps fixed to the cover such as to be located on both left and right sides of the taillight. The rear-side turn signal lamp is provided with a fixture for fixing the rear-side turn signal lamp to the cover. The taillight is inserted into an opening provided in the cover, whereby a lens is exposed to outside and is covered by the cover from the periphery. The rear-side turn signal lamp includes a guard section covering the fixture. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A lamp body structure for a saddle riding vehicle, comprising: a lamp body; and a cover covering the lamp body from a periphery, wherein the cover includes a pair of turn signal lamps fixed to the cover such as to be located on both left and right sides of the lamp body, the turn signal lamp being provided with a fixture for fixing the turn signal lamp to the cover, the lamp body is inserted in an opening formed in the cover, whereby a luminous section is exposed to outside and is covered by the cover from a periphery, and the turn signal lamp includes a guard section covering the fixture, the turn signal lamp includes a main body section that emits light, and a rubber section that is inserted from left outside and right outside into the cover, inside the cover, the fixture is inserted into the rubber section in a radial direction of the rubber section, the guard section is provided in an outer periphery of the rubber section, and the guard section covers the fixture from a radial directionally outer side of the rubber section. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The lamp body structure for the saddle riding vehicle according to claim 1, wherein the rubber section includes an engaging section for engagement with the cover, the turn signal lamp includes a core member disposed inside the rubber section at the engaging section, and the fixture fixes the rubber section and the core member. ### Claim 3 (depends on 2) The lamp body structure for the saddle riding vehicle according to claim 2, wherein the fixture is any one of a screw, a clip, and a fixing body formed to be integral with the core member. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The lamp body structure for the saddle riding vehicle according to claim 1, wherein the rubber section includes an inside extension section extending more toward the lamp body side than the guard section. ### Claim 5 (depends on 4) The lamp body structure for the saddle riding vehicle according to claim 4, wherein an end portion of the inside extension section is located substantially on an extension line of a side surface of the lamp body. ### Claim 6 (depends on 1) The lamp body structure for the saddle riding vehicle according to claim 1, wherein a fender that covers a wheel and a reflector that reflects light are provided, and the cover is smaller than the fender in transverse directional size, and the luminous section of the lamp body is greater than the reflector in transverse directional size. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) The lamp body structure for the saddle riding vehicle according to claim 1, wherein the guard section has a plate-like shape connected to the rubber section through a hinge section at one end, and is openable and closable with the hinge section as a center by elasticity of the rubber section. ### Claim 8 (depends on 2) The lamp body structure for the saddle riding vehicle according to claim 2, wherein the rubber section includes an inside extension section extending more toward the lamp body side than the guard section, the core member includes projections projecting in a radial direction, the rubber section is tubular, and includes a hole section for engagement with the projection of the core member inserted into inside of the rubber section, and the inside extension section extends to the lamp body side from a part where the hole section is provided. ### Claim 9 (depends on 1) The lamp body structure for the saddle riding vehicle according to claim 1, wherein the lamp body is inserted into the opening of a sub-assembly formed by assembling the turn signal lamps onto the cover. ### Claim 10 (depends on 1) The lamp body structure for the saddle riding vehicle according to claim 1, wherein the lamp body is a taillight, and the turn signal lamps are provided at rear portions of the vehicle.
