To provide a brake device for a motorcycle which can be made more compact. Disclosed herein is a brake device (50) for a motorcycle including a brake pedal (19) rotatably supported to a support shaft (52) and extending frontward from the support shaft (52) in the longitudinal direction of the motorcycle, a master cylinder (53) located on the rear side of the support shaft (52) in the longitudinal direction of the motorcycle for generating a braking hydraulic pressure according to the rotational operation of the brake pedal (19), and an operational amount detector (54) mechanically connected to the brake pedal (19) for detecting the rotational amount of the brake pedal (19). The master cylinder (53) is located above the support shaft (52) in such a manner that the axis (53a) of the master cylinder (53) extends vertically, and the operational amount detector (54) is located on the rear side of the support shaft (52) in the longitudinal direction of the motorcycle. The master cylinder is arranged vertically, so that the master cylinder and the operational amount detector can be densely arranged in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle. Accordingly, a more compact brake device for a motorcycle can be provided.
