A variable linked braking system controlled by motorcycle lean angle includes a brake master cylinder; a hydraulic pressure proportion variable valve connected to the brake master cylinder; a front brake unit and a rear brake unit, both connected to the hydraulic pressure proportion variable valve; a hydraulic pressure proportion controller for controlling the hydraulic pressure proportion variable valve; a motorcycle lean angle sensor for sensing a motorcycle lean angle and sending a signal thereof to the hydraulic pressure proportion controller; and a brake switch for starting the brake master cylinder and sending a brake signal to the hydraulic pressure proportion controller for controlling the hydraulic pressure proportion variable valve so that the braking force ratio of the front brake unit to the rear brake unit decreases as the motorcycle lean angle increases, thereby enhancing the stability and traction of a motorcycle being braked in a turn.
