Abstract
A variable speed drive wherein an impact to be transmitted to an inputting mechanism is absorbed. A shift spindle has an input side end portion to which an inputting mechanism is connected and an output side end portion supported for rotation at a transmission side supporting portion provided on a transmission case. A master arm is positioned between the input side end portion and the output side end portion in an axial direction of the shift spindle. An extension collar member is fixed integrally to the master arm. The extension collar member connects the master arm and a connection portion provided at a location of the shift spindle rather near to the input side end portion than the output side end portion. The extension collar member extends from the connection portion toward the master arm with a gap left from an outer circumferential face of the shift spindle.
