<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a clutch-operation assist mechanism which can respond to power cutoff by a clutch mechanism with favorable responsiveness. <P>SOLUTION: A clutch-operation assist mechanism 50 of a clutch mechanism 24 which couples/uncouples the power of an engine and is provided to a power transmission path to transmit the power of the engine to a rear wheel is configured such that a push rod member 98 which is movable in the axial direction interlockingly with a power cutoff of the clutch mechanism 24 due to the operation of a clutch lever 22 by a rider is arranged in the vicinity of the clutch mechanism 24, and an axial movement of the push rod member 98 is assisted by an actuator 28 in response to a detection of the clutch lever operation by the rider using a stroke sensor 84 thus reducing an operation force of the clutch lever 22, wherein a detection lug 92 of the stroke sensor 84 detects a movement quantity of a shaft end of the push rod member 98. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT |
