    Pete is correct

    If you had a manual shift ---- the linkage would be attached there.

    It is nice to know that it is there in case you ever get stuck in gear you can manually shift from there...

    Shifter shaft used on the manual clutch/shift bikes, but I do like the PTO idea.

    The first thing I thought of was a PTO also, but I've been into Jeepin' since I was a young fart. Now I'm an old fart. But I'm thinking about conjuring up a kind of collapsible Suicide Shift Handle to stick on that shaft, just in case?

    Someone used vise grips as an emergency fix at a rally a few years ago. Got them to a gas station.
