2015 · Allround
The 2015 Aprilia Mana 850 GT ABS represents a unique approach in the "Allround" motorcycle category. This model continued Aprilia's innovative Mana lineage, which debuted with the original Mana 850, known for its automatic transmission. In the 2015 landscape, it carved its niche against direct competitors like the Honda NC750X and the Suzuki V-Strom 650, offering a distinct alternative for riders seeking convenience and versatility without sacrificing genuine motorcycle feel. The GT trim added valuable touring enhancements, building on the base Mana's practical foundation.
At its heart, the Mana 850 GT ABS is powered by an 839.30 ccm (51.21 cubic inches) Aprilia 90° longitudinal V twin engine. This powerplant generates a respectable 75.10 HP (54.8 kW) at 8000 RPM, providing ample power for varied riding scenarios. Torque output stands at 73.00 Nm (7.4 kgf-m or 53.8 ft.lbs) at a lower 5000 RPM, ensuring accessible thrust for effortless acceleration. The motorcycle maintains a dry weight of 189.0 kg (416.7 pounds), contributing to its agile feel. Fuel capacity is generous at 16.00 litres (4.23 gallons), promising a good range between fill-ups.
Riding the Mana 850 GT ABS is characterized by its comfortable, upright stance, typical of an all-rounder. The seat height, at 800 mm (31.5 inches) (lowest setting if adjustable), accommodates a broad range of riders, promoting confident flat-footing at stops. The GT variant enhances comfort with improved wind protection, making longer journeys more agreeable. The integrated ABS system provides an important safety net, offering confident braking performance in diverse conditions. The focus here is on ease of use and practicality, allowing riders to concentrate on the road ahead.
The 2015 Aprilia Mana 850 GT ABS is ideally suited for riders who prioritize convenience, versatility, and a comfortable riding experience. Its automatic transmission makes it particularly appealing to those transitioning from scooters, or riders who simply prefer not to deal with manual clutch operation, while still desiring the power and handling of a full-size motorcycle. Its "Allround" classification truly fits, making it a capable machine for daily commuting, weekend excursions, and even light touring. This Mana offers a compelling, user-friendly package that broadens the appeal of motorcycling.
