A CPU (Central Processing Unit) of an ECU (Electronic Control Unit) drives a fuel heating device when a fuel heating condition is satisfied and the result of a fuel heating prohibition determination process indicates permission of heating. On the other hand, the CPU does not drive the fuel heating device when the fuel heating condition is not satisfied or when the result of the fuel heating prohibition determination process indicates prohibition of heating. In the fuel heating prohibition determination process, the CPU detects a tilted state of a motorcycle, and prohibits or permits heating of fuel in a fuel pipe by the fuel heating device based on its detection result.
