A motorcycle includes a power unit. A fly wheel magnet on a left end side of a crank shaft, a transmission having plural gears, a transmission clutch and a shift shaft for connecting and disconnecting the transmission clutch and changing gears of the transmission are housed in a crank case of the power unit. A part of the shift shaft projects from the crank case. A projection part of the shift shaft and an output shaft of an actuator are connected outside the crank case by means of a connection body. A rod of a connection body extends vertically behind the fly wheel magnet.
