Aprilia calls it a sports tourer, but the Aprilia Shiver 750 GT, has got an integral Ride by Wire system where the rider can choose between three mapping setups (Sport, Touring, Rain) to always have the ideal power delivery for the current road conditions.
With the Sport mapping setting, the behaviour of the engine is the sports performance of the Aprilia twin.
The Touring setting gives you a softer power delivery for the pleasures of touring, using more of the engine’s torque, the Rain Map, reduces the torque delivered by 25% and helps the riders avoid spinning the rear wheel when starting on slippery roads.
The main characteristics of the Aprilia Shiver 750 GT are: * 90° V2 engine with four valves per cylinder, double overhead camshaft and liquid cooling; * ride-by-wire electronic throttle technology with 3 different mappings (Sport, Touring and Rain); * electronic fuel injection with latest generation injectors; * mixed gear and chain valve timing; * modular steel trellis and aluminium side plate frame for high torsional rigidity; * aluminium swingarm with reinforcement truss and lateral shock absorber; * 43 mm upside down fork; * brakes with radial caliper at front; * latest generation two channel ABS (ABS version only)
