A V-belt continuously variable transmission in which an actuator unit for driving a movable sheave is slidably supported by a transmission case that is formed by fastening a plurality of case members with a plurality of fastening members, for ensuring a sufficient space for slidably moving the actuator unit and enhancing workability of mounting and dismounting operation of the actuator unit. A flat mounting surface for mounting the actuator unit is formed on an outer surface of the transmission case. Also, a recessed portion recessed inwardly of the transmission case from the mounting surface is formed to have at an inner end thereof a fastening seat face for a specific fastening member out of the plurality of fastening members, the specific fastening member being disposed at a portion corresponding to the mounting surface. The whole specific fastening member is disposed inwardly of the transmission case relative to the mounting surface.

A secondary air supply system in which individual members may be arranged to be disposed on substantially the same straight line in an engine, whereby connection path lengths are reduced and the attachment thereof is facilitated. The secondary air supply system may be provided between an air cleaner and attached to an engine and an exhaust port of the engine. The secondary air supply system has a secondary air control valve, a lead valve and secondary air supply paths which connect the air cleaner, the secondary air control valve and the lead valve together and supply air to the exhaust port from the air cleaner. The air cleaner, the secondary air control valve and the lead valve may be arranged to be disposed on substantially the same straight line when viewed from the side.
