The braking device (10) for the motorcycle is configured to permit actuation control in an interlocking manner of a rear-wheel brake caliper (18) and a front-wheel brake caliper (16) based on an operation of a brake pedal (14). The braking device (10) includes: a hydraulic pressure detector (70) that detects rear-wheel brake hydraulic pressure caused by the operation of the brake pedal (14); a determining portion (72) that determines whether or not a detected value by the hydraulic pressure detector (70) is a predetermined value or more; and a hydraulic pressure controller (68) that, when it is determined by the determining portion (72) that the detected value is the predetermined value or more, changes a rising rate of the rear-wheel brake hydraulic pressure to a value lower than a rising rate during a period until the time when the rear-wheel brake hydraulic pressure reaches the predetermined value to control the rear-wheel brake hydraulic pressure, and also controls front-wheel brake hydraulic pressure in accordance with a hydraulic pressure set based on the rising rate of the rear-wheel brake hydraulic pressure after changing.
