A shifter mechanism includes a secondary detent forming a secondary detent profile having a plurality of gear positions, a shifter lever movable relative to the detent profile and a along a shift path, a lever pivotably secured to the shifter lever and engaging the detent profile as the shifter lever moves along the shift path, and a torsion spring biasing the lever into engagement with the detent profile. The illustrated lever includes a cylindrical-shaped connecting portion operatively secured to the shifter lever and an elongate arm portion extending from the connecting portion and having a free end engaging the secondary detent profile. The illustrated connecting portion is received in a cylindrically-shaped cavity formed by the shifter lever so that the lever is pivotable relative to the shifter lever and the spring extends about the connecting portion to resiliently bias the lever into engagement with the secondary detent profile.
