Rider Profile

Best ForSuited to riders with at least some experience handling a torquey, shaft-driven V-twin cruiser with modest ground clearance and old-school handling manners.
PurposeBuilt for relaxed cruising and classic-styled boulevard riding rather than outright speed or sport performance.
Rider FitThe low 760mm seat height and manageable dry weight make it accessible to shorter riders, though the air-cooled V2 and shaft drive give it a dense, low-slung feel at low speed.
CharacterA charmingly old-fashioned, transversely-mounted V-twin cruiser with shaft drive quirks, torque-driven pull, and understated retro Italian styling.
Not Ideal ForNot for riders seeking sharp cornering agility, off-road capability, or high-speed sport performance.

2000 Moto Guzzi Jackal Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 760mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2000 Moto Guzzi Jackal, with a cramped knee angle of around 85 degrees and an upright 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.
