Abstract

A snowmobile drive assembly includes an engine mounted on a frame by vibration isolation mounts and having an output shaft connected, by means of a flexible coupling, to a first shaft which is rotatably supported on the frame by a first pair of axially spaced bearings. A variable speed primary clutch is mounted on the first shaft between the first pair of bearings and is connected, via a drive belt, to a variable speed secondary clutch mounted on a second shaft disposed parallel to the first shaft and rotatably mounted on the frame by a second pair of bearings.
