Rider Profile

Best ForBest suited to intermediate and experienced riders who want a torquey V-twin naked with a lively, characterful power delivery.
PurposeBuilt for spirited road riding and canyon carving, mixing punchy midrange torque with agile, naked-bike handling.
Rider FitA moderate 810mm seat height and manageable 193kg dry weight make it approachable for riders of average build, though the reach and sportier ergonomics favor a taller frame.
CharacterDelivers a raw, characterful V-twin growl with strong low-to-mid torque and quick-turning agility typical of Italian naked bikes.
Not Ideal ForNot the right choice for riders seeking a plush long-distance tourer, off-road capability, or wind protection for extended highway travel.

2015 Aprilia Shiver 750 ABS Rider Ergonomics Assessment

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 810mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2015 Aprilia Shiver 750 ABS, with a relaxed knee angle of around 125 degrees and a forward-leaning riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
