BRAKE DEVICE, AND STRADDLING TYPE VEHICLE

During control ON of a brake control device, an ECU acquires a front wheel target braking force and a rear wheel target braking force from operation amount-front/rear wheel target braking force characteristics stored in a storage based on a master cylinder pressure detected by a master pressure sensor, and controls an oil pressure unit such that oil pressures corresponding to the acquired front wheel target braking force and rear wheel target braking force are respectively supplied to a front wheel brake and a rear wheel brake. During control OFF of the brake control device, oil pressures generated by a tandem master cylinder are directly supplied to the front wheel brake and the rear wheel brake. Hydraulic pressure control is performed such that operation amount-both wheels target braking force characteristics in a control ON state is equal to operation amount-both wheels target braking characteristics during a control OFF state.
