A control device of a gear transmission-equipped vehicle includes a power controller that starts power reduction control when it is determined that a start condition is satisfied, the power reduction control being control of reducing power transmitted from a driving source to a gear transmission. The start condition includes: a condition that a detection value of a gear position sensor that detects a current gear position of the gear transmission falls within a transition region between engagement regions corresponding to respective gear positions; and a condition that a speed difference obtained by subtracting a rotational speed of an output shaft of the gear transmission from a rotational speed of an input shaft of the gear transmission is a threshold or more.

A breather device includes: a breather chamber into which oil mist in a crank chamber of a combustion engine is introduced; and a breather passage configured to guide oil mist from a crank chamber into the breather chamber. The breather chamber has formed therein a labyrinth structure in which gas-liquid separation of the oil mist is performed. An introduction pipe forming a part of the breather passage is communicated with an upper portion of the crank chamber, and projects upward from an upper end portion of the crank case.
