2013 Aprilia SRV 850 ABS-ATC

2013 Aprilia SRV 850 ABSATC sits at the top of Aprilia's maxi-scooter range, built for riders who want serious performance without giving up a twist-and-go platform. Under that bodywork is the same V-twin architecture found in Aprilia's sportbikes, which means real midrange shove rather than the flat, buzzy delivery you get from typical scooter engines. This is a machine that eats highway miles, handles two-up touring duty without complaint, and still feels composed when you push it through a set of fast sweepers. The wide, low stance and substantial bodywork give it a planted, almost car-like stability at speed that most scooters simply can't match. As the first year of production, the 2013 model established the SRV 850 ABSATC's core formula without the benefit of running changes or revisions to iron out early quirks, so buyers should pay close attention to maintenance records. This bike attracts former sportbike riders looking for less commitment day to day, along with commuters who cover serious mileage and want power in reserve rather than a bike that's constantly working at its limit.
