You guys pronounce it Shiver? I always say Shiver... man I bet everybody who read this actually read the name in 2 different ways

[@humanfirst11]

It is "sheever" (not sure how else to say this) not "shyver".

[@IanTed]

Deb Talukdar It’s shiver as in cold😆

[@beetleything1864]

What 🥸🤨

[@anandantony2056]

Nice video's keeping going 😍🕺

[@superchicken5000]

Nice video. I love the Dorsoduro, coolest bike ever!

[@threethrushes]

Great review for two bikes which tend to be overlooked by the mainstream reviewers in Europe. One thing which I do not quite get is why you pronounced shiver the way you do. Maybe its an aussie thing. Anyhow, great review!

[@6tdegrees]

No unfortunately it's not the Aussie accent it's just Matt Fountain speaking in tongue yet again, the correct pronunciation is Shiver not shy-ver. We do apologise

[@sanduniwindya5144]

I, m from srilanka i favorite bike is aprilia dosaduro

[@solomon0o0o0ozz]

shayver... anyway good review. thank you.

[@jorgesoandso]

Dursdoor

[@beetleything1864]

Jesus can Aussies not pronounce anything correctly 🤷‍♂️🙈🤨🙄🤯. When you are cold you ……..shiver. 🤯🤯🤯🤯

[@jasonstubbs3393]

Guys it's Shiver not shyver 😂😂😂 spend a day in wales... Then you'll know how to say shiver 🥶😂

[@SydneySlowRider]

You guys do absolutely world-class reviews.

[@6tdegrees]

Thank you so much! We do try 👍

[@dimos5422]

i have the dorsoduro 750 its 210 kilos with about half a tank and somehow it feels much heavier standing than my vstrom 650 . while riding it feels light and nimble though

[@khai2717]

Shyver???

[@6tdegrees]

I do believe Matt Fountain was pronouncing Shiver incorrectly 😂

[@IanTed]

Tell you live in hot climes, it’s shiver in Europe, as in cold😆. Good review though but the Dorsoduro is too heavy for a hypermoto.

[@ruysk]

I think Aprilia is refined quality bikes today. They looks really good when you get near them. Must be Italian Hondas.

[@mwdfinch76]

Just redo the sound. Shy-ver?

[@sarahdell4042]

Very well presented reviews of both bikes!

[@00wick2d]

Good video but,SHIVER! NOT SHAYVER!

[@headonnis3814]

I've always said Shiver, like this cold gives me the shivers. Now I'm second guessing myself :/

[@bodes2416]

I'm 5'7 and ride the Dorsoduro 900. You definitely get used to the height but need to be careful of the road camber at stops. I'm surprised you didn't talk about the engine braking though, that is something that should get a mention at least - real world riding in traffic at speed limit can be difficult to manage when the engine braking comes in and jolts you back and forth - right around that 50km/h speed in 2nd/3rd.

[@kenhayes7875]

Hey whats the top speed of your dorsoduro 900

[@bodes2416]

It taps out at about 120 mph

[@shelby3822]

What are you talking about with "engine braking" being an issue?

[@garmit61]

Top review guys. I think the Shiver could be a contender for my next bike.

[@LoudValves]

SHYver... LOL

[@Wheelnut78]

Meh, I'll take the old 1200 DD.

[@SteveMuir]

My mate would shudder seeing the dash on the Shiver out there in the elements with no protection after his Dorsodura 1200 died with water in the dash. (They hide the ECU in there. WHY?)

[@עופראביעוז-ו2ק]

I rode the shiver. Great motorcycle.

[@Yii00T]

Change the bulbs out.

[@yorkshireR9T]

I like the looks of the shiver.

[@You-Toober]

Is the Aprilia a reliable bike in the long run? And which one would be more expensive: parts and labor for a Japanese dual sport (or enduro) bike or the Aprilia Dorsoduro 900?

[@luckystrike656]

I just can't decide for the First bike. Like the style of the dorsoduro and less one of the shiver. What are others in this category and price Tag?

[@6tdegrees]

PajoPatak if you're looking for more of a motard sort of style, a second hand Ducati hypermotard would sink in to the same price bracket.

[@thewitchfindergeneral]

You can also check the KTM 990 SUPERMOTO R (second hand) but it's a lot more "hooligan" than Ducati and Aprilia for sure, I mean I wouldn't recommend that for a first bike to be honest, but it worth mentioning it.

[@MiniKodjo]

did you make your choice. I am in the same mood...

[@nestorasbellas6604]

Thank you so much for this great review! Honest, fun and comprehensive! Is the headlight of the shiver equally dull if I may ask? Thinking of buying this bike (the shiver) seriously and use it in rain mode and traction control at 2 or 3 till I get used to it. I am just commuting right now on a small displacement scooter (a modern 150cc piaggio) and I have little experience to higher cc engines (and its been a while since I had one with a clutch, and a much weaker one too!).

[@deweysturgill6220]

Beautiful bikes, just wish they weren't so heavy . I'd buy one to accompany my Tuono in a heartbeat.

[@andreasalerno3635]

WOOW GREAT VIDEO!

[@worldhello1234]

@2:45 Off course you want, to use the Autobahn or the race track. :)

[@israelsantos1582]

shiver 900 or monster 821?

[@6tdegrees]

Israel Santos personally yet to test ride the new 821. I would have no doubt that it would be a very impressive bike.

[@MarcosDiegos]

Damn good review.. top speed could e been added but great job guys

[@mitchellkennedy3556]

I love aprilia but, I think they need to hire some younger designers. it looks like two hand vacs coming off the back. Ugly breaks, plain fork tubes. How bout we pull out the CNC. shiver me a few details into my 10k+ machine. Nice job hiding those beautiful frame lines. That loaf of bread hanging off the front will help pick up a few pounds of mud if you hit the trail. It looks old and its new. But it's not made to look vintage... I'd still drive this if the price was right second hand.

[@SiriusXification]

Dunno, undertail exhausts seem cool, even if impractical. And wtf do u want from forks?

[@CatholicVampire]

That guy has the weirdest build I've ever seen

[@6tdegrees]

Anton S. Tomac which one haha

[@CatholicVampire]

@@6tdegrees First guy in the red hat, he seems like a great guy, not bad looking but just an very oddly shaped physique

[@sarahdell4042]

Anton S. Tomac Strangest comment on a motorcycle review, goes to you. Nothing is odd about his physique either ?

[@gbner9991]

not really lol

[@DonaldActivo]

miles per gallon ????????????? on the Dorsoduro

[@hunkkwoizer6653]

Just subbed for fav Shiver 900.... Underappreciated & Overlooked g8 work guys!!

[@JCBigCat]

LOL gate work :D

[@knotingspecific]

Same engine

[@cw2002]

Shyver?

[@TomTom-mb9tg]

No LED headlights and indicators? C'mon Aprilia! It's 2020 already. Even Honda CB500X has those and costs 25% less.

[@Demonoid1990]

I'm looking at possibly picking up a Shiver 900 next year some time. Every review I've seen almost everyone mentions how comfy it is. That and I'm 6'2" so I shouldn't have any issues getting my feet on the ground. I was looking at the Suzuki SV 650 and BMW F800R too. But from the reviews I've seen I like the features offered on the Aprilia, and I like the looks of it better too. At 12-15 hp more at the wheels than the SV 650 I think it should still make a good starter bike for me. Plus it has all the additional electronics built into it.

[@mrsept16]

Both Underpowered and heavy

[@kazadventures]

What bike would you buy instead?
