Where the Moto Morini Alltrhike 450 sits
Wet weight against ground clearance for every bike in the finder that publishes both. Light and tall, top left, is where the easiest green lane bikes sit. Tap a dot to open that bike.
Figures are manufacturer claims. Clearance is measured differently by different makers, so treat small gaps as a draw.
Will your feet reach?
The Moto Morini Alltrhike 450 has a 847mm seat. Enter your inside leg for a rough idea of how much foot you'll get down when stopped.
A rough guide only. A wide seat needs more leg than a narrow one, the suspension settles 20 to 40mm under you, and boots add a little. Many bikes offer a low seat or lowering link. Sit on one before you buy.
Range against similar bikes
Real-world range from tank size and typical economy, against the bikes closest to it in weight and type. Out on the lanes, fuel stops are often further apart than on a road ride.
Range only. Hard off-road riding and headwinds use more fuel, so plan fuel stops with margin.
Tyres that fit the Moto Morini Alltrhike 450
It runs a 90/90-21 front and a 140/70-18 rear, on CST from the factory. 42 tyres in our Tyre Finder are made in at least one of those sizes, ranked by green lane score.
Sizes are for the standard UK model and can change between model years. Check the size on your own tyre sidewall, and ask your dealer before fitting a different size. Our size lists come from maker and retailer listings and can miss sizes, so a tyre shown for one end may still be made in your other size. Check the maker's size chart.

What we actually found
The Alltrhike 450 is a direct, accessible response to the mid-capacity adventure boom. Its 270-degree crank 449cc parallel-twin is exceptionally tractable at low revs, pulling smoothly from walking pace without the snatchiness found on some single-cylinder rivals. Its standout feature is rider accessibility: the 847mm seat height and narrow stand-over make it far easier to paddle through greasy ruts and gate stops than taller competitors. It trades away a little rear suspension travel to achieve this low height, but for green laners prioritising confidence and low-speed balance, it's one of the friendliest twins on the market.
Pros for green laning
- Accessible 847mm seat height: low stand-over height lets average-height riders paddle both feet securely through tricky gateways, slimy clay, and rock steps.
- Tubeless 21"/18" spoked wheels: allows fitment of aggressive knobby tyres with the convenience and speed of roadside tubeless puncture plugs.
- Tractable 270-degree parallel twin: the 449cc twin produces 44.2hp and 44Nm with smooth low-rpm torque that resists stalling on rocky climbs.
- High factory specification: comes equipped out of the crate with heated grips, heated seat, centre stand, bash plate, and switchable off-road ABS for roughly £5,299.
Cons and limitations
- Weight over a single: at roughly 198kg road-ready with fuel, it requires more muscle to haul upright after a drop than a lightweight 300cc dual-sport.
- Modest 190mm rear travel: slightly shorter rear suspension travel than hardcore dirt singles, risking bottoming out on heavy G-outs.
- Lightweight plastic sump guard: standard underside protection is plastic and requires an aftermarket aluminium bash plate for sharp bedrock lanes.
- Single front brake disc: the single front brake setup can feel soft during high-speed, fully loaded tarmac descents between trailheads.
