Abstract
A gear position of a multi-position transmission, which shifts and drives a vehicle according to a turn motion of a shift drum, is detected by a plurality of sensors. An end portion of the shift drum is fitted with an end portion of an elongated shaft rotated coaxially with the shift drum. A first sensor which is fitted to other end portion of the elongated shaft detects a turn position of the elongated shaft. A second sensor which is located outside in a radial direction of the elongated shaft between the one end portion and the other end portion of the elongated shaft detects that the elongated shaft is located at a specified turn position. The first sensor and the second sensor are fitted from the outside of a transmission case of the multi-position transmission and are exposed to the outside of the transmission case.
