APRILIA Shiver 750 (2012-2013) Specs, Performance & Photos

The Aprilia Shiver 750 was a naked bike produced by Aprilia in 2007. It was the first production motorcycle that implemented the ride-by-wire system on a 90-degree V-twin engine. It was succeeded by the Aprilia Shiver 900 in 2016.

In 2012, the Italian motorcycle maker released the Aprilia Shiver 750, a naked motorcycle in its sixth year of production. The bike remained essentially unchanged and featured new colors and graphics for 2012.

In the visual department, the motorcycle was equipped with fittings, such as a small front cowl with a single headlight unit and a small wind deflector, a one-piece dual seat with passenger grab handles, a dual exhaust system with silencers mounted under the seat, and 12-spoke lightweight alloy wheels.

It was built around a modular steel trellis frame. It retained the same suspension system as the previous model, comprised of a 43 mm inverted fork on the front with 120 mm of travel and an adjustable off-set shock absorber on the rear with 130 mm of travel.

Two 320 mm stainless steel wave discs and four-piston calipers handled the bike's front stopping power, while a 245 mm stainless steel floating disc with a dual-piston caliper dealt with the rear end braking power.

As for the power figures, the 2012 Aprilia Shiver 750 had its soul brought to life by a 750cc four-stroke liquid-cooled V-twin powerhouse that delivered an output power of 95 hp at 9,000 rpm and 81 Nm (60 lb-ft) torque at 7,000 rpm.
