V2 means more fun in the middle class, garnished with proper sound and modern technology. |
V2, 750 cc, middle class! Boring? Certainly not! The Shivers simply, but still makes fun everywhere. A fun plane for any occasion.
The Aprilia Shiver by now already 2 seasons on the market and has expanded the range of Aprilia considerably. While the naked middle class has been operated mainly by the Japanese, there is now the Shiver with a worthy opponent. Middle class for many often sounds a little pejorative and you do bikes like the Shiver wrong with it. Middle class also means namely that a motorcycle can do many things well and not just dominated disciplines. We rode the Shiver as ever on the track - and it was fun. We drove around the city - and it was very comfortable and easy to drive. We drove on the highway - and enjoyed the curves. The Aprilia Shiver with a ride-by-wire system control, ie, the motor obeys the bits and bytes, and not directly via cable to the throttle grip.
The frightened at the beginning for some buyers, in 2010, the scratches but no more. Especially in the Super Sport Group, some motorcycles on the road with such systems and especially for beginners or less experienced drivers are the system offers nice advantages. Normally V2 engines sometimes act a bit rude. If you go too fast the throttle or just to quickly close the throttle, it previously belonged to the character of a V2 that he just stuttered a little and bring unrest in the saddle. When Shiver this whole process is smoothed. The engine is really smooth on the gas and forgives many rookie mistakes. Pressing without the machine in any clichés, the results together with the low seat height easy to drive motorcycle that comes with every driver or any driver against.
In the image of the easy-to-propelled motorcycle fits the chassis. Rather something soft and not too directly, it never overwhelmed. The lean angle but fits so you can let the bike fly fast through the corners. Sure it is not as precise and tight as the hardcore naked bike, but does not use a vague impression. If you drive long trips, the way Shiver should equip with a wind shield, then you can expand the scope considerably.
Compared with the 600s in the class, so the CBF 600 and the Yamaha XJ6 plays Aprilia their displacement advantage mercilessly. But the Ducati Monster 796 is allowed to stand at every traffic light. 0-140 of her takes the Shiver from 1 second. Restrained by the 750cc Aprilia is in consumption. In the Alpine test it approved is just 4.2 liters per 100 kilometers. This gives a range of 354 km!
