From Hell for Leather Magazine:

A lightly updated Shiver:



Quote
Like the 2010 Aprilia Dorsoduro Factory, images of the 2010 Aprilia Shiver 750 have leaked ahead of the official unveiling on Monday. Unlike it's supermoto sibling, the Shiver isn't an upgraded model, but rather a refresh designed to reinvigorate stagnant sales of Aprilia's naked roadster. New is the fairing around the headlight, the 5mm lower seat height, higher footpegs and lower bars, while new aesthetics beyond the paint scheme are shared with the Dorsoduro Factory in the form of blacked-out exhaust shrouds, a red steel trellis connected to a black cast aluminum frame, and wavy brake discs. We've included a shot of the old Shiver in the gallery above so you can see how well the changes work for yourself.


And a Dorsoduro Factory:

Images of the 2010 Aprilia Dorsoduro Factory have leaked ahead of the bike's official unveiling at EICMA on Monday. The upgraded 750cc v-twin supermoto most noticably receives a heavy dose of carbon fiber for its panels and a red-painted steel trellis frame. Unlike "Factory" designated superbikes before it, the Dorsoduro makes do with fully adjustable Sachs suspension instead of Ohlins, but does gain radial Brembo brakes with 320mm front discs, this setup ditches the base model's ABS. The 92bhp, 60lb/ft engine remains unaltered, retaining the standard bike's three-mode (touring, sport and rain) adjustable maps. We'll bring you more details from EICMA on Monday.

Democracy and socialism have nothing in common but one word, equality. But notice the difference: while democracy seeks equality in liberty, socialism seeks equality in restraint and servitude.

I really like the new look for the Shiver.  It looks more integrated than with the old headlight.  The ass on the Dosuduro looks very wide!

ape has some good mojo going on right now, I hope they (and all OEM's) can gain some traction with this economy, tough times regardless the lust.
