1. Basic structure
Shape and design: Most of them are streamlined or contours that fit the curve of the vehicle body (such as teardrop shape, trapezoid, etc.). Some fuel tanks are designed with ergonomic arcs to facilitate the driver's leg clamping.
Material:
Metal fuel tank: Traditional iron or aluminum alloy material, durable but heavy; the surface is usually coated with rust prevention.
Plastic fuel tank: lightweight design, common in modern models, strong corrosion resistance but need to be scratch-proof.
Capacity: varies greatly depending on the positioning of the model (such as about 6-8 liters for scooters and more than 20 liters for cruisers).

2. Core functions
Oil storage and supply: connected to the carburetor or electronic injection system through the oil pipe to ensure stable fuel delivery.
Sealing: Rubber sealing rings or silicone gaskets are used to prevent leakage, and some fuel tanks have built-in leak-proof barriers.
Anti-sway design: There are wave-breaking plates or partitions inside to reduce the impact of oil sway on vehicle balance during riding.

3. Key components
Refueling port: located on the top or side of the fuel tank, equipped with different fuel caps (rotating, push-type or key-open).
Vent: balance the air pressure inside and outside the fuel tank to avoid difficulty in refueling or deformation due to oil vapor accumulation.
Oil level sensor: some models are equipped with electronic oil level display, which monitors the oil level through a float or sensor.

4. Installation and location
Common location: mostly located under the seat (straddle-type models) or integrated with the frame (scooters, underbone vehicles).
Fixing method: connected to the frame through brackets, bolts or clips, and stability and ease of disassembly and assembly must be taken into account.

5. Maintenance points
Regular inspection: observe whether there is rust, cracks or leakage, and metal fuel tanks should be treated with rust prevention.
Cleaning and maintenance: The fuel should be drained before long-term storage to avoid oil stain corrosion; plastic fuel tanks should be protected from chemical corrosion.
Ventilation system maintenance: ensure that the vents are unobstructed to avoid blockage and abnormal air pressure.

6. Special design
Lightweight fuel tank: Racing or high-performance models may use carbon fiber or alloy materials to reduce weight.
Integrated fuel tank: Some scooters combine the fuel tank with the storage space to optimize the body layout.
Explosion-proof and safety: Some fuel tanks have built-in flame-retardant materials or explosion-proof structures to reduce the risk of accidents.
The design of the motorcycle fuel tank directly affects the endurance, riding safety and maintenance convenience. It is necessary to select the appropriate specifications and materials according to the purpose of the vehicle (commuting, off-road, long-distance, etc.).
