Rider Profile

Best ForSuited to riders with at least some prior motorcycling experience who are comfortable managing a substantial, shaft-driven touring machine.
PurposeBuilt primarily for long-distance, relaxed highway and cross-country touring rather than outright speed or sportiness.
Rider FitA tall-ish seat height combined with real heft means shorter or less physically confident riders may find low-speed maneuvering and parking a bit demanding.
CharacterA characterful, understated shaft-drive V-twin tourer that favors smooth, unhurried, mile-eating riding over aggressive performance.
Not Ideal ForNot a good fit for riders seeking sharp cornering agility, off-road capability, or track-day thrills.

2010 Moto Guzzi Norge 1200 T Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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 2010 Moto Guzzi Norge 1200 T, 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.
