Shiver Time
Having now spent some quality time in the saddle of my new Shiver I must say that this bike performs beautifully. Very quick out of the gate and very responsive. You can throw the bike around with a fair bit of ease and she responds without question. Very stable at high speeds, no discernable vibration through foot pegs or bars. Ridng position is excellent with no fatigue after 3 hours in the saddle. Driving in the sport mode offers plenty of torque however in the rain or touring mode she is alot tamer.
I love the exhaust note of the twin.
Was out at a BMW demo day and drove the R1100S. Very nice bike but I would not trade the Shiver.
The Shiver is a work of art. Everyone who sees it takes a double look. The gold trellis frame really stands out. Have had many compliments on the bike and lots of people fishing around for a test ride. The headlight throws a ton of light at night as well.
Looking forward to some track time to see what she can really do.
