A saddle riding vehicle includes an internal combustion engine having a crankshaft, a starter motor having a rotary shaft connected to the crankshaft, a main shaft connected to the crankshaft, a countershaft connected to the main shaft and configured to transmit power to a driving wheel, a battery configured to supply electric power to the starter motor, a rotation detector configured to detect a rotation state of the crankshaft, an acquisition part configured to acquire a rotational speed on the basis of the rotation state detected by the rotation detector, and a controller configured to stop the starter motor in a case the rotational speed is equal to or smaller than first threshold in a state in which the rotary shaft, the crankshaft, the main shaft and the countershaft are connected.

A detection device includes sensor device configured to obtain environmental information about surroundings of a small vehicle, an output unit outputting the environmental information to a control device of the small vehicle, and a mount configured to be attached to a rider of the small vehicle so as to hold the sensor device and the output device.

An e-bike interface is a hybrid wired/wireless e-bike control system that integrates wireless bicycle components into operation of an e-bike. The e-bike interface provides a frame-mounted control and display that is wired to, for example, an assist motor and a battery, and provides a wireless communication bridge between wireless bicycle components and corresponding wireless controls located on a handlebar.

A multi-speed drive hub for a bicycle contains: a hub shaft, a speed-changing transmission, a speed shifter, and a sprocket set. The hub shaft is connected on a center of a wheel rim of the bicycle and includes a speed-changing transmission. The speed-changing transmission includes at least one drive element and an actuator for driving multiple force segments of the speed-changing transmission to rotate reciprocately. The speed shifter includes a fitting sleeve which has a third fixing orifice corresponding to the at least one drive element. The sprocket set includes multiple speed cassettes of different diameters and includes multiple spacing spaces, each of which is defined any two adjacent speed cassettes. The fitting sleeve has multiple ribs and multiple flexible sheets. Each drive elements includes multiple retainers, multiple columns, and multiple force segments.

A quickshifter-equipped vehicle control unit includes an engine speed calculator configured to calculate an engine speed and a shift controller configured to operate in a quick shift mode and in a normal shift mode. The quick shift mode is a mode in which upon detection of the shift operation, the shift controller adjusts an output of an engine while keeping a main clutch in an engaged state, and the normal shift mode is a mode in which upon detection of the shift operation, the shift controller controls a clutch actuator to bring the main clutch into a disengaged state. The shift controller selects the quick shift mode when the engine speed is higher than a predetermined rotational speed threshold, and selects the normal shift mode when the engine speed is lower than the rotational speed threshold.

A straddle vehicle comprises a shift drum formed with an engaged part; a transmission case formed with an insertion hole, a gear position sensor including an engagement part engageable with the engaged part; and a seal ring fitted to the outer peripheral surface of the gear position sensor, and the insertion hole includes a first inner peripheral surface with which the seal ring is in tight contact in a state in which the engagement part is engaged with the engaged part, and a second inner peripheral surface located closer to an entrance of the insertion hole than the first inner peripheral surface and having a diameter larger than a diameter of the first inner peripheral surface, and in a state in which the seal ring has reached an entrance of the first inner peripheral surface, at least a portion of the engagement part is fitted to the engaged part.

There is provided a motorcycle. A crankshaft extends in a width direction of the motorcycle. A counter shaft is arranged in parallel with the crankshaft. A clutch mechanism is arranged at one end of the counter shaft and is configured to transmit and disconnect rotation of the crankshaft to and from the counter shaft. A clutch actuator is configured to perform a disconnection/connection operation of the clutch mechanism. A shift mechanism is arranged below the counter shaft and is configured to shift and transmit the rotation of the crankshaft to a driving wheel. A shift actuator is configured to perform a shift operation of the shift mechanism. The shift actuator is arranged opposite to the shift mechanism in a front and rear direction of the motorcycle with the clutch actuator being interposed therebetween.
