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 GT, a more touring-oriented motorcycle that retained the same sophisticated technical package of the standard model.
The bike came with a new half-fairing that added more aerodynamic protection and extended the use of the machine, making it suitable for daily commuting or longer journeys, offering a relaxed and fun riding experience.
In the aesthetic department, the bike had standard features, such as a half fairing with a single headlight unit, a small windscreen, a one-piece dual seat, an under-seat-mounted exhaust system, aluminum wheels, and optional side panniers, a top bag, and a tank bag.
As for performance, the 2009 Aprilia Shiver 750 GT had its muscles from a 750cc four-stroke liquid-cooled V-twin engine mounted underneath its fuel tank, delivering 95 hp at 9,000 rpm and 81 Nm (60 lb-ft) torque at 7,000 rpm.
The front wheel was guided by a 43 mm inverted fork and stopped by two 320 mm discs tied to four-piston calipers. The rear end was controlled by an adjustable shock absorber and stopped by a 245 mm disc with a dual-piston caliper.
