A system for feeding a fuel to a carburetor on a motorcycle, comprising a frame on which an engine having a carburetor is mounted, a main fuel tank disposed at the front side of an upper portion of the frame for storing fuel such as alcohol therein, and an auxiliary fuel tank disposed at the rear side of the upper portion of the frame for storing fuel such as gasoline therein. The main and auxiliary fuel tanks are in communication with the carburetor through main and auxiliary fuel passages, respectively. A switch cock is provided in the main fuel passage for opening and closing thereof, and a measuring pump is interposed in the auxiliary fuel passage for supplying an auxiliary fuel at a predetermined flow rate from the auxiliary fuel tank to the carburetor. The switch cock and measuring pump are disposed at opposite sides of a lower surface of the main fuel tank. Accordingly, a driver on the motorcycle can easily reach and operate the switch cock and measuring pump in his sitting posture on the motorcycle.
