Rider Profile

Best For	This is best suited to an experienced rider who appreciates a characterful, torquey V-twin over outright sportbike aggression.
Purpose	Built as a muscular naked roadster, it excels at spirited street riding and boulevard presence rather than track lap times.
Rider Fit	At 222 kg with an 800 mm seat height, it demands a rider of reasonable height and strength to manage its heft at low speed and standstill.
Character	The shaft-driven, air/oil-cooled transverse V-twin gives it a raw, mechanical, old-school Italian personality full of torque and shaft-drive quirks like driveline lurch under throttle.
Not Ideal For	It is not the right choice for riders wanting a lightweight, flickable machine or one that can handle any unpaved or off-road terrain.

Inseam (optional)

Units

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 800mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2012 Moto Guzzi Griso 8V SE, with a relaxed knee angle of around 130 degrees and a forward-leaning riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
