PURPOSE:To prevent the deformation of a baffle plate in the direction of car body width by supporting the rear of the baffle plate on the front of a fuel tank through the engagement of a protrusion and a recess and equaling the protrusion and recess in the dimensions in the direction of the car body width and then providing a gap between both in the advance direction of the car body. CONSTITUTION:A fuel tank 9 is arranged at the rear of a steering shaft pipe 3 spanning across a main pipe 6. A radiator 12 is provided between the fuel tank 9 and the steering shaft pipe 3 and a baffle plate 14 is mounted on the outside while being supported also on the fuel tank 9. For this purpose, a pair of upper and lower protrusions 15 are provided behind the baffle plate 14 and a pair of upper and lower recesses 16 are pvodivded in front of the fuel tank 9 and then both 15 and 16 are engaged with each other. Both 15 and 16 are almost equal in the dimensions in the direction of a car body (A) width and a gap is provided between both 15 and 16 for the advance direction of the car body (A). As a result, when the fuel tank 9 is deformed, the deformation of the car body (A) into the width direction is suppressed by the protrusions 15 of the baffle plate 14. |
