Abstract

A fuel supply system for a vehicle is provided with a fuel pump disposed in a fuel tank sitting astride a vehicle body frame. The fuel pump is disposed along a side surface of the fuel tank in a position opposed to a portion of the vehicle body frame. This fuel supply system for a vehicle provides a system in which a fuel pump can be disposed even in a fuel tank of a saddle-ridden vehicle with minimum modifications required in size and shape.
