In 2011, alongside the standard model, the Italian motorcycle manufacturer launched the Aprilia Shiver 750 GT ABS, a more touring-oriented version of the base model fitted with several touring accessories that enhanced its touring capabilities.
In addition, the bike was delivered with additional safety equipment in the form of an Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS), which added a touch of safety and took care of the motorcycle in slippery situations.
The 2011 750 GT ABS model packed standard features, such as a half fairing with a single headlight unit, a small windscreen, a one-piece dual seat with passenger grab rails, an off-set horizontally-mounted rear shock, and 12-spoke alloy wheels.
It was built around a dismountable steel trellis frame softened by a 43 mm inverted telescopic fork on the front with 120 mm wheel travel and an adjustable shock absorber on the rear with 130 mm of travel.
Two 320 mm discs mounted on the 17-inch front wheel and coupled to four-piston calipers achieved the braking power. The 17-inch rear wheel was controlled by a 245 mm disc with a two-piston caliper.
The 2011 Aprilia Shiver 750 GT ABS had installed a 750cc four-stroke V-twin liquid-cooled engine at its core paired to a ride-by-wire system. Also, the engine was managed by a fuel injection system and delivered an output power of 95 hp at 9,000 rpm and 81 Nm (60 lb-ft) torque at 7,000 rpm.
