The Shiver 750 is fitted with the latest generation integral Ride by Wire, a multimap, a chassis which, according to Aprilia, is able to satisfy all levels of riders.
- V2 90° engine with four valves per cylinder, double overhead camshaft and liquid cooling
- Integral Ride-by-Wire tri-map technology developed for competitions
- Modular trellis/aluminium frame with significant torsional rigidity
- Aluminium swingarm with stiffener brace and lateral shock absorber
- 43 mm upside down fork
- Racing brakes with radial callipers and 320mm Wave discs
- Sport rider/passenger footpegs
- Rear wheel with 5.5 mm channel
Colours with a new graphic (Bianco Glam and Nero Aprilia), the “wavy” discs and the sporty rider footpegs are just a few of the signals which Shiver gives off to the beholder. The line remains streamlined and Italian and thanks to the clever use of the new colours and graphics, Shiver moves up a few notches as far as balance and aggression are concerned, highlighting some techniques that really make a difference, such as, for instance, the side shock absorber or the mixed steel trellis frame and aluminium plates.
The Shiver makes use of the integrated multi-map Ride by Wire technology which comes from the RSV4 superbike. This technical solution represents the state-of-the-art version of engine control systems and Aprilia Shiver confirms its technological leadership position in its sector.
Maximum power of 95 HP at 9,000 rpm and maximum torque of 81 Nm at 7,000 rpm is top of the line performance. The engine is compact in length making it possible to obtain an agile bike, which is also helped by the particular choice to install the shock absorber on the side: this is not simply an aesthetic choice but a precise technical decision as it frees some extra space for the exhaust which can then benefit from optimal volumes.
The aluminium swingarm with the stiffener brace is dimensioned to withstand the asymmetrical stress caused by the lateral position of the shock absorber. The swingarm has benchmark rigidity levels in this category.
