Rider Profile

Best ForThis restricted-power (35kW/A2-license) version of the Shiver 900 suits newer riders or those on a licensing tier, though the chassis itself is capable enough to grow with a rider's skill.
PurposeBuilt primarily as an around-town and back-road naked bike, offering playful handling over outright speed thanks to its power-limited V-twin.
Rider FitA moderate 810mm seat height and manageable 218kg wet weight make it accessible to a wide range of rider heights and strengths, though it's not a lightweight commuter.
CharacterCharacter comes from the torquey 90-degree V-twin growl and nimble tubular steel chassis, giving a fun, engaged feel rather than raw thrust.
Not Ideal ForNot a good fit for riders wanting highway-eating touring comfort, high-speed thrills, or any off-road capability.

2022 Aprilia Shiver 900 35KW 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 2022 Aprilia Shiver 900 35KW, 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.
