MotorWeek Two Wheelin': Aprilia Mana 850

[@LP_NY]

fantastic bike NOT ONLY FOR BEGINnERS .........

[@ronhard7544]

Best review About the Mana, i’ve seen so far (and i’ve seen a lot). Just a honest review about the mana without comparing it to other bikes.

[@nixonn3]

Have you ridden one? Coming from a cbr900rr I'm thinking I'll be bored

[@AngelSapundzhiev]

@@nixonn3 I own one for the past year - I guarantee you, it will be much more fun than the one you are coming from. Mana has so many options and the quickshifter, without having to use the clutch (if you still want to shift) is AMAZING! I was thinking of getting a Tuono, but Mana has enough power for all I need, I don’t do track days, and the most practical bike with the most fun factor. Definitely a keeper, I literally married this bike and it is impossible to divorce it! 😁

[@nixonn3]

Ha, I ended up getting one. When I test rode, was just comfortable and fun to ride. Not much power, terrible suspension.. lots of vibrations ..Still bought. Like the storage! Got the GEAR error occasionally already.. ..

[@coldwetandhappy6879]

@@nixonn3 yes I’ve owned one, same color as in the video with abs. Sold it owned a bulldog 1100 and now a Triumph street triple 675. Still miss the mana. So comfortable seat and easy to use. I’ve never owned a bike i used that much for everything. Now I’m looking for a mana again with abs and the Gt version.

[@GunCollector007]

Do they still make this model?

[@muaythai193]

Awesome bike, awesome review! That's how you do it, short and full of good infos! If only the Mana had more power!

[@coldwetandhappy6879]

If only you owned one, you’d realize it’s got all the power you’d ever need.

[@muaythai193]

@@coldwetandhappy6879 all the power YOU need, speak for yourself only dude. 🤷‍♂️

[@lostintheclouds8719]

I did not know that it had storage in the front. Cool. I found a 2009 going for $2900 not too far away from me that I wanna go take a look at. I’m a new rider but I’m not sure if it’s going to be too heavy for me but I still want to definitely go check it out because for obvious reasons automatic , don’t have to worry about stalling Etc

[@scarabeo500gt]

update if you got it.....GREAT Bikes!

[@lostintheclouds8719]

@@scarabeo500gt unfortunately I couldn’t because I was unable to flat foot at all. I mean I couldn’t even flat foot with 1 foot down. We even lowered the suspension all the way that it could go and I still couldn’t do it. I had boots on. Unfortunately it’s just too high and heavy of a bike for me. It sucks too because it was only $2900 used and in great condition. I was totally going to buy it but it just didn’t work out for me and my size. However if anyone knows of what could be done to lower it further and lessen the weight, let me know. I talked to one of my local shops and though you could cut seat an inch even after lowering it fully and doing that they still said that it would still be high/heavy for me.

[@ChristianoDeAraujo]

I have this Bike, I love it! this is the perfect motorcycle!!!

[@nixonn3]

Have you ridden many other 800cc plus clutched bikes,?

[@ChristianoDeAraujo]

@@nixonn3 not really. I dont have time for shifting gears. I'm more concerned with the traffic and enjoying the ride.

[@ChristianoDeAraujo]

@ThePHiLsTeR it is but also gives lots of problems

[@nixonn3]

@@ChristianoDeAraujo yip scooters and auto bikes are great commuters!

[@stanza77]

It’s pretty! I’d get a manual version for sure!

[@satchboogyfan]

Looks great I wish other companies would follow the lead A z1000 w/ a cvt so I don't burn the clutch up would be great

[@Yosemite-George-61]

Well done, professional review. Thanks.

[@305pride]

wow this bike actually seems cool. i like it.

[@geminiman7069]

Ummmm. Might be a bike worth trying out. Roads are so congested in the UK.

[@venom5809]

I like this and the price is great.

[@WunderLogik]

'it's' called progressive technology...europe and asia has been doing it for some time now. so, when is the harley automatic coming out?

[@LP_NY]

I got the Gt abs one this bike is fucking AWESOME

[@rob_225]

where can you buy one in Georgia

[@martijn700]

awesome this is the perfect bike for me :D i'm handicapt on my left arm no clutch is perfect for me but motorscooters sucks

[@Triangulove]

Why is this guys voice so fucking sarcastic?

[@The_Maine_Card_Guy]

This bike answered a question that no one was really asking.

[@ronhard7544]

Philip J I was... the only thing I hate about riding, is shifting...

[@taskmasterjosh]

this looks like it would be a decent daily driver for a beginner

[@TheMikewalking]

Good review. Automatic?? mmmmm

[@cityfisherman89]

i like but not at 10 grand

[@c8myotome]

no tach? no thanks :-(

[@ronhard7544]

A tach on a automatic? Why?

[@CorbinGoodwin]

Oh no, now it's happening to bikes...

[@sandro14esandro14e]

That’s what people are saying about electric ⚡️

[@CorbinGoodwin]

@D Laza I don't even know what this original comment was about but hell yes, autos suck in cars and bikes alike. Change is sick when it makes the ride more fun
