APRILIA Shiver 750 (2009-2010) Specs, Performance & Photos

The Aprilia SL750 Shiver was a naked motorcycle made by Aprilia from 2007 and manufactured until 2016, when it was replaced by the Aprilia Shiver 900. It was also available in a partially faired version named Shiver 750 GT that debuted in 2009.

In 2009, the Italian motorcycle manufacturer launched the Aprilia Shiver 750, a naked motorcycle in its third year of production. The bike had the same technical, visual, and performance specifications as the previous model without modifications.

The 2009 model had factory-installed standard features, like a single headlight unit, a one-piece dual seat with passenger grab handles, an under-seat-mounted exhaust system, and ten-spoke lightweight wheels.

A 43 mm inverted telescopic fork handled the bike’s front suspension, delivering 120 mm wheel travel. In comparison, the rear end was controlled by an aluminum swingarm tied to an adjustable shock absorber with 130 mm of travel.

The motorcycle glided on 17-inch aluminum alloy wheels fitted with two 320 mm discs, four-piston calipers on the front, and a 245 mm disc with a two-piston caliper on the rear, offering excellent stopping power.

In the performance department, the 2009 Aprilia Shiver 750 had its heartbeat set by a 750cc four-stroke liquid-cooled V-twin powerhouse managed by a fuel injection system, boasting 95 hp at 9,000 rpm and 81 Nm (60 lb-ft) torque at 7,000 rpm.
