Aprilia Shiver 750 2011

Aprilia Shiver 750 2011

Without wanting to force the bike into any clichés, this, together with the low seat height, results in an easy-to-ride motorbike that really accommodates every rider.

Engine is very smooth on the throttle and forgiving of many mistakes

easy handling

good chassis.

Could be a bit more precise and tighter.

Aprilia Dorsoduro 900 2019

Aprilia Dorsoduro 900 2019

Supermoto with strong naked bike genes. The Aprilia Dorsoduro 900 is the perfect choice for those who are looking for the feeling of a genuine supermoto, but do not want to do without the comfort and convenience of a naked bike. Its pleasantly smooth V2 and well-tuned chassis find a very fair compromise between emotional sports machine and everyday cruiser, which is why the Dorsoduro 900 can be recommended to a broad target group. Visual details such as the undersat exhaust or the red valve covers give it a lot of character even when stationary, even if the overall design seems a little outdated. The only downer is the operation of the display, which should have been much more intuitive.

Charismatic engine

very accessible power delivery

high comfort for a supermoto

easy handling

easy to read display.

Display operation not intuitive

could do with some fresh styling
