Aprilia Dorsoduro 900 2017

Aprilia Dorsoduro 900 2017

The Dorsoduro 900 can do everything better than its predecessor, the Dorsoduro 750. The electronics with adjustable modes, ABS and traction control work flawlessly, and the engine now also has the necessary punch from below that makes a two-cylinder supermoto so much fun. Thanks to the high seating position, it is agile enough, but always remains stable and precise. The look is only slightly changed from the Dorso 750, but since the competition has given up in unison, the Dorsoduro 900 is the last of its kind and thus the only supermoto funbike on the market.

Powerful engine with well-tuned electronics

disengageable traction control

good brakes with disengageable ABS

stable handling

unique look

active seating position

Relatively high weight

poorly readable rev counter
