Aprilia unveils new 750

Aprilia USA has introduced the 750 Shiver, which the company says features a sportier riding position with its revised handlebar position, narrower seat and adjusted footpegs.

Aprilia says the bike’s design is also more sportier, with the introduction of a short windshield and aggressive wave brake rotors. The Shiver also comes with a 5.5×17-inch rear wheel, which provides improved handling and also increases turn-in speed.

The Shiver’s V-90 engine has a maximum output of 95 horsepower at 9,000 rpm and a maximum torque of 81 Nm at 7,000 rpm.

The 2011 model is available in Aprilia Black or Crowd Silver, and will retail for $8,999.
