Aprilia Shiver 750 Knowledge

Has anyone owned/rode a Aprilia Shiver 750?

My lady is looking at a couple, and just wondering if anyone has any input/experience. Is there any reason why they seem to be so cheap? $3k-$5k for most examples.

No too scared of any mechanical/electrical issues, I'm a competent wrench thrower.

She's a taller girl, and won't have an issue with 100bhp either.

Thanks!

People buying the new ones and low interest in the used market plus low brand recognition. The big bikes get all the attention. I've bought 2 cheap used aprilia Tuonos. The last was close to trade in value. No major issues. Depends on how much power she is used to/desires. Depending on your location may not be a dealer nearby. 

Sounds like they may be discontinued with euro5 smog.

I had the Dorsoduro 750 which should be almost identical on the engine. Never had any issues and was a fun bike. 

I would highly recommend getting the O2 optimizer though. The engine did like to "lurch" at lower RPMs and this fixed it up.
