Positioned in Aprilia's naked motorcycle lineup, the 2022 Aprilia Shiver 900 35kW pairs a 896.1 cc (54.7 cu in) liquid-cooled v2, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 46.9 HP (34.3 kW) at 8,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 90 Nm (66.4 lb-ft) at 6,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 52.3 HP per liter and a 1,500 rpm working window between peak torque (6,500 rpm) and peak power (8,000 rpm), the engine character is prioritizing low-RPM tractability, mechanical longevity and relaxed throttle response over peak redline numbers.
On the scales, the Shiver 900 35kW measures 218 kg (481 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.22 HP/kg (4.65 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 810 mm (31.9 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,465 mm (57.7 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 15-liter (4 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 5.31 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 282 km (175 miles) between fill-ups.
