Summary: | When a change in operating mode of an automatic transmission is detected by a detector (33), a solenoid drive circuit (30) for changing the damping characteristics of a shock absorbing apparatus (Fig. 6), which limits rolling of the engine, is driven for a predetermined period of time. When the solenoid drive circuit (30) is driven, a solenoid (29) is energized to rotate a spool (25) of the shock absorbing apparatus. The size of the orifice (23) between two liquid-filled chambers (12, 13) is thereby changed to increase the damper effect. As a result, the reaction force against a large torque generated by vehicle engine when the operating mode changes is decreased, and vibration transmitted to a body frame is damped. |
