There is provided a motorcycle-drive assistance apparatus that makes rapid deceleration by an engine brake possible so that braking control unintended by a rider can be avoided. The motorcycle-drive assistance apparatus is configured in such a way that a deceleration-start inter-vehicle distance calculation unit calculates a deceleration-start inter-vehicle distance, by use of an acceleration value read from an engine-brake acceleration value storage unit, based on an own-vehicle speed calculated by an own-vehicle speed calculation unit and a road-surface gradient angle calculated by a road-surface gradient angle calculation unit and in such a way that when the inter-vehicle distance between an own vehicle and another vehicle, detected by an object detection unit, becomes smaller than the calculated deceleration-start inter-vehicle distance, deceleration of the own vehicle through the engine brake is started.
