Provided is a routing structure for a braking force-transmitting member in a motorcycle in which a front part of a unit-swing engine supporting a rear wheel is supported on a vehicle body frame via a link mechanism, and the braking force-transmitting member is routed to extend in the fore-and-aft direction so as to transmit a braking force to a rear wheel brake disposed coaxially with the rear wheel, wherein the link mechanism includes a first link linked to the vehicle body frame and a second link linked to the unit-swing engine while having an engine suspension boss portion pivotably linked to the first link, and a guide member retaining the braking force-transmitting member extending in the fore-and-aft direction beneath the unit-swing engine is mounted on the second link. This can suppress swinging of a braking force-transmitting member and enables the mass around the braking force-transmitting member to be concentrated.
