Has anybody got or test rode a Shiver?
 
Am thinking about changing the SV over to sommat else, but I'm not interested in litre bikes, but still want a v-twin.
Looking at Aprilia, and what they are doing with the shiver.

Little known fact, Soulkiss is a bike journalist, you can tell because of his rambling lengthy posts where every little niggle is aired.

I was always under the impression that aprilia bikes are on the avoid list...
Scooters aren't supposed to be tooo bad though (apart from the gilera dna)
