Rider Profile

Best For	Suits an intermediate to experienced rider comfortable with a tall, substantial shaft-drive machine rather than a nervous sportbike.
Purpose	Built primarily as a long-distance sport tourer for covering big miles in comfort with a companion and luggage aboard.
Rider Fit	A tall, wide bike with a low seat height that helps shorter riders, but its overall bulk and weight demand reasonable strength at low speed and standstill.
Character	A distinctive, torquey transverse V-twin with shaft drive that rewards relaxed, smooth-throttle riding over aggressive revving and quick direction changes.
Not Ideal For	Not for riders seeking sharp track-day handling, lightweight flickability, or serious off-road capability.

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 2009 Moto Guzzi Norge 850, with a cramped knee angle of around 70 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.
