Abstract
A drum type-variable speed drive wherein a spring bearing member, which is restricted from moving in the axial direction of departing from a shift fork by a locking member fixed to a shift fork shaft, is pivotally supported by the shift fork shaft. A lost motion spring is interposed between the spring bearing member and the shift fork. Movement of the shift fork shaft in the axial direction caused by rotation of a shift drum presses the spring bearing member through the locking member, whereby the spring load of the lost motion spring acts on the shift fork.
