Abstract
A fuel vapor processing device for a straddle-type vehicle equipped with an engine and a fuel tank. The fuel vapor processing device includes: a canister configured to adsorb fuel vapor generated in the fuel tank; an intake system component configured to form a part of an intake passage of the engine; a purge valve configured to release the fuel vapor toward the intake passage; a first hose configured to connect the canister and the purge valve; and a second hose configured to connect the purge valve and the intake system component. The purge valve is attached to the intake system component.
