A windscreen up-down device comprises a pair of right and left side rails disposed to extend in a forward direction and a rearward direction so as to be tilted downward in the forward direction, a center rail that is disposed between the side rails such that the center rail extends in the forward and rearward directions so as to be tilted downward in the forward direction, and a movable unit that is configured to be guided up and down along the side rails and the center rail, and is attached with a windscreen. The movable unit includes a pair of side slide members respectively guided along the side rails, a coupling member disposed to extend in a rightward direction and a leftward direction to couple the side slide members to each other, and a center slide member that is provided on the coupling member and is configured to be guided along the center rail. The side rails and the center rail have circular-arc shapes of substantially concentric circles as viewed from the side.
