Aprilia Shiver 900 2018

The Aprilia Shiver 900 clearly has its own peculiarities when it comes to operating the display and the riding modes - but here we'll let the Italian diva bonus pass. Because while riding, the mid-range naked bike is a real poem and lets you "waddle easily" from curve to curve. Thanks to high-quality chassis components, it can be directed as if on rails, while the 95 hp V2 transforms petrol into auditory feelings of happiness! The seating position also gives a good feeling and gives the impression that you can lift the Shiver 900 through any radius. So if you can get over the perhaps slightly dusty looks, you'll find the Aprilia a fabulous mid-range naked bike that will turn any country road rush into true soul gold!

Powerful V2 power unit

wonderful sound

suitable for A2

comprehensive electronics package

stable chassis in combination with sporty chassis

very easy to ride

comfortable but sporty seating position

Driving mode selection unnecessarily complicated

headlight optics somewhat greyed out
