Aprilia Dorsoduro 900
The Aprilia Dorsoduro 900 was introduced in 2017 as a successor to the Dorsoduro 750, featuring the proven 90-degree V-twin engine shared with the Shiver 900. It was notable for blending supermoto-inspired styling with a torque-rich, approachable power delivery, making it one of the more characterful middleweight naked bikes in the segment. Production continued until around 2020-2021 before the model was phased out as Aprilia shifted focus to other platforms.

What Buyers Should Know
Shared Tuono Engine
The Dorsoduro 900 uses the same 896cc 90-degree V-twin from the Aprilia Tuono 900, a proven motor known for strong mid-range torque and solid reliability when properly maintained with regular oil changes.
Watch the Throttle Bodies
Some owners report throttle body synchronization issues causing rough idle or hesitation, so always request service records and check for dealer-performed TPS resets before buying used.
Steady Resale Value
The Dorsoduro 900 holds its value reasonably well in the supermoto segment due to limited production numbers and its premium Aprilia branding, making low-mileage examples particularly desirable on the used market.
