APRILIA Shiver 750 (2011-2012) Specs, Performance & Photos

The Aprilia Shiver 750 was a naked motorcycle made by Aprilia from 2007 until 2016, when it was succeeded by the Aprilia Shiver 900. It was the first production motorcycle that implemented the ride-by-wire system on a 90-degree V-twin engine.

In 2011, the Italian motorcycle manufacturer released the Aprilia Shiver 750, a naked machine in its fifth year of production, retaining the same sophisticated package as previous models without significant modifications.

It had standard features, like 12-spoke lightweight alloy wheels, a horizontally-mounted off-set rear shock absorber, an under-seat-mounted exhaust system, a one-piece dual seat with pillion grab rails, and a front fairing with a small windscreen.

In the technical department, the bike's ride-by-wire system offered three riding modes. The Sport mode delivered maximum power and torque, the Touring mode provided smoother power delivery, and the Rain mode restricted power, making safety the number one priority.

In the performance department, the 2011 Aprilia Shiver 750 had its soul brought to life by a 750cc four-stroke liquid-cooled V-twin engine. It was managed by a fuel injection system and delivered 95 hp at 9,000 rpm and 81 Nm (60 lb-ft) torque at 7,000 rpm.

As for the braking performance, the motorcycle packed two 320 mm stainless steel wave discs squeezed by four-piston calipers on the front and a 240 mm stainless steel wave disc tied to a dual-piston caliper on the rear wheel.
