An electronic component is integrated into a vehicle body component, such as an automobile, a bicycle, etc., and may be an electronic lighting material and/or an electronic sensor. The vehicle body component is formed of multiple layers of a composite material that may be assembled to take the shape of a mold of a particular vehicle component. A sensor or lighting device is disposed in a void formed in the one or more of the layers of the composite material, and this device may be enclosed in the void by other layers. The lighting material and/or sensing mechanism are configured to connect to a power source via electrical wiring that is disposed either between or through the composite layers that form the vehicle body component and the vehicle body component is then cured to form a hardened vehicle body part with the sensor or lighting device formed therein.

A seat bench arrangement for a motorcycle is provided, with a tank bearing which is designed for connecting a tank bladder to a vehicle structure, and a seat bench for receiving a motorcyclist. The seat bench is connected to the tank bearing such that the tank bearing forms a bearing for supporting the seat bench.

A saddle riding vehicle includes a fuel tank supported by a body frame through a rear stay that is provided in the fuel tank. The rear stay includes: an upper stay that extends rearward from an upper surface of a fuel reservoir of the fuel tank; a lower stay that extends rearward from a lower surface of the fuel tank. The upper stay and the lower stay are combined with each other at the rear of the fuel reservoir.

A saddle-riding type vehicle includes a driver's seat on which an occupant taking a driving posture sits, a fuel tank disposed in front of the driver's seat and extending in a front-rear direction and a canister formed into a long-length shape that defines a longitudinal direction of the canister, fuel vapors generated in the fuel tank being brought into the canister and adsorbed and held by an adsorbent provided in the canister. The canister is disposed under the fuel tank with the longitudinal direction aligned with the front-rear direction and is entirely covered by the fuel tank in vehicle side view.

A fuel tank arrangement for a vehicle, in particular a motorcycle, includes a first tank body, a second tank body, and a connecting element, via which there is a fluid connection and, optionally, a mechanical connection between the first tank body and the second tank body. The first tank body is spaced apart from the second tank body in such a way that there is a free space between the first tank body and the second tank body and, where applicable, the connecting element, in which at least one further structural component of the vehicle can be arranged.
