Rider Profile

Best ForSuits new-to-intermediate riders thanks to modest power, a low seat, and predictable handling.
PurposeBuilt for stylish short rides, urban cruising, and weekend bobber-style posing rather than performance riding.
Rider FitThe low seat height and relaxed bar position make it accessible for shorter or less experienced riders, though the wide bars and 210 kg wet weight require some deliberate low-speed handling.
CharacterA characterful air-cooled V-twin with a bobber attitude, offering torquey low-end pull, a shaft-drive's smooth power delivery, and classic Moto Guzzi charm over outright speed.
Not Ideal ForNot for riders seeking high-speed touring capability, off-road versatility, or strong passenger comfort.

At 785mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2019 Moto Guzzi V9 Bobber Sport, with a relaxed knee angle of around 120 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).
