Abstract: This shift device is provided with a detent device, which is provided with an engaging member that is provided between a housing and a shift fork and that engages in a recessed part of the shift fork, and an elastic member that pushes the engaging member toward the recessed part of the shift fork, the engaging member being pushed into the recessed part of the shift fork by the urging force of the elastic member and the shift fork being held in a neutral position when a hub and a transmission gear are in an unengaged neutral position, and the engaging member being pushed into an inclined surface of the shift fork by the urging force of the elastic member and the shift fork being urged into an engaged position when the hub is in an engaged position of being engaged with the transmission gear.

Abstract: The manual transmission includes a shift select shaft, a connecting member, a lever member, a guide pin and a guide plate, wherein the connecting member, the lever member, the guide pin and the guide plate are arranged so that under a state that the guide pin and the guide plate are engaged at the engaging portion, assuming that the portion of the shift select shaft is a fulcrum, the connecting portion is a point of effort, the engaging portion is a point of load and that the fulcrum, the point of effort and the point of load exist on a same virtual plane, an operation direction of a reaction force generated at the point of load becomes a direction opposite to the operation direction of the operation force inputted to the point of effort.

Abstract: The transmission includes a plurality of shift forks which includes a U-shaped main body, an engaging portion and a pair of supporting portions provided at both sides of the main body. When the engaging portion engages with the inner lever and the shift select shaft moves along in the axis line, the plurality of shift forks is rotated relative to the housing about the pair of supporting portions as a rotation center thereof and the sleeve connected to the pair of connecting portions is configured to be movable between the low speed side gear and the high speed side gear and the pair of supporting portions is provided at a point between a pair of reference fulcrums and the pair of connecting portions where a rotational moment of a connecting body formed by connecting the sleeve with the plurality of shift forks becomes zero at the pair of reference fulcrums.
