A top fairing and lateral intake ducts in true racing style, composite frame with red trellis, black exhaust covers and two-tone graphics are just a few of the many contents and details that underscore its sports spirit with
the force of Aprilia’s technology and design.
Aprilia shiver looks like from the top, its so sexy…
The narrow saddle, aft-mounted footpegs and handlebar position make riding ergonomic and sporty for riders of all statures and levels of experience. The Wave front and rear disc brakes let you safely tackle
the road with exhilarating aggressiveness. The separate and removable passenger footpegs also give the Shiver 750 an extra touch of sportiness.
Electronic control of the power supply provides the ideal torque in all conditions. Latest generation electronic fuel management makes it
possible to better handle the 95 hp at 9,000 rpm, optimising torque delivery across the rev range for a bike that is easy, efficient and fun to ride.
Aprilia was the first to introduce this technology on a production bike, revolutionising both riding pleasure and ease. The Ride-By-Wire system, which optimises power delivery, emissions and fuel consumption in relation to engine speed, gear selected, throttle grip aperture and closure speed,
temperature and atmospheric pressure, offers impeccable rideability and fluidity in all conditions.
The rider can change the character of the V90° engine by simply touching a button on the throttle hand with the thumb. Simply cycle through the three maps displayed on the instrument panel screen and select the one required: Sport, Touring, Rain. The letter representing the selected map flashes on the screen and, the next time you open the throttle, you will note that the bike personality has changed significantly!
The analogue-digital instrument panel is a genuine on board computer receiving and processing a whole host of information via the CAN line and equipped with its own memory for self-diagnostics. The LCD display, with adjustable backlighting for optimum visibility in all conditions, provides the rider with a comprehensive set of information: gear engaged, map selected, ambient temperature, trip time and clock.
100% made in italy, engineered and constructed entirely by aprilia, the 90° v-twin offers performance comparable to that of a four cylinder of the same class, with incredible elasticity and rideability. the 90° v configuration allows for remarkable results in terms of performance and compactness.
exciting and potent when you want to carve through the turns, smooth and linear when you want to enjoy the scenery on a longer journey, and reliable, thanks to aprilia experience and quality.
The hydraulic multiplate wet clutch is self-adjusting, for smooth, millimetre
precise engagement and maintenance-free use.
The chassis, which has always been one of aprilia’s strong points, is a
composite frame with the upper tubular steel part connected to large,
aluminium side plates on the Shiver, an admirable synthesis of rigidity and light weight. this work of sculpture emerges from aprilia’s experience on the racing circuits and allows the engine power to be used to full advantage.
Every component of the chassis exudes authentic sporting passion. The dimensions and configuration of the aluminium swingarm are specifically defined for maximum stiffness even when the bike is ridden hard.
The shock absorber is mounted laterally not just for an aesthetic reason, but because this solution frees up space for the centrally located exhaust manifold, allowing for perfectly symmetrical weight distribution. The lateral shock absorber, pivoted directly on the swingarm, features adjustable spring preload and hydraulic rebound.
The upside-down fork with 43 mm diameter stanchions and a wheel travel of
120 mm, lets the rider tackle any road with precision, comfort and safety. The steering yokes are in forged aluminium for maximum lightness and strength in true motorsports style.
If you want to enjoy effectiveness, thrills and spontaneity of riding to the utmost with extraordinary personality and style, then Shiver 750 GT is the ideal sport touring bike for you. Its new sharp and surrounding top fairing makes the design of this bike even more seductive, and its protection, even more complete in all conditions. The storage compartments with 12V socket keep all comforts within reach all of the time. A riding position designed to minimise fatigue, generous power delivery and torque on tap whenever you need it mean that any journey can be tackled with extraordinary ease and
confidence. The version with two-channel ABS offers the peace of mind of even greater active and passive safety, even in the most challenging situations.
Perfectly in keeping with the spirit of the bike, the top fairing of the Shiver
750 GT includes two practical storage compartments which are easily
accessible even when on the move. The fairing also boasts a 12V socket
for powering a GPS receiver, a battery charger or other accessories.
Shiver proclaims its sports character with a radial calliper braking system: a solution derived directly from motorsports. The 320 mm front discs are the same components used on Aprilia’s hypersports models: the result is outstanding braking performance and precision. Both the front and rear brake systems use metal braid pipes: another racing solution for
class leading braking performance.
In collaboration with Continental, Aprilia has developed an ABS system specifically calibrated for each of the two Shiver models to ensure maximum safety even in the worst road conditions. This innovative two channel system manages the front and rear brakes separately with a sophisticated
electronic control that monitors the speed of the two wheels in real time. Safety first and foremost, whether you are pushing the bike to its limits in the most challenging turns or if you are suddenly faced with an unforeseen hazard.
