Provided is a saddled vehicle capable of optimizing distribution of a braking force between front and rear wheels at the time of deceleration during linear traveling, before entering a corner, and in a similar situation. A saddled vehicle () includes: a front wheel braking component () that applies a braking force to a front wheel (WF); and a rear wheel braking component () that applies a braking force to a rear wheel (WR), and is configured to operate the front wheel braking component () and the rear wheel braking component () in an interlocking manner in response to an operation of an operating element () as a single operating element. In response to the operation of the operating element (), the front wheel braking component () first starts operating, and thereafter, in response to a braking condition of the front wheel braking component () satisfying a first condition, the rear wheel braking component () starts operating. In response to satisfaction of the first condition, the braking force of the rear wheel braking component () is increased while the braking force of the front wheel braking component () is maintained at a first front-wheel-braking force (P1).

In a cowling fastening structure () for fastening a first cowling member () and a second cowling member () to each other by using a clip (), the two cowling members are provided with opposing walls () having a mutually aligned through holes () formed therein, the clip is provided with a first member () and a second member () joined by a hinge (). A free end of the first member formed with an engagement hole () is passed through the through holes, and a free end of the second member formed with an engagement claw () is passed around the opposing walls so as to engage the engagement claw with the engagement hole.
