Guennady Moisseev is a Russian former three-time Grand Prix motocross world champion.

He was the 1974 F.I.M. world champion in the 250cc class on a KTM motorcycle.

Moisseev, like many Russian sports stars of his era, was enlisted in the Russian Army, rising to the ranks of Major during his racing career. His extreme fitness combined with team tactics made him a fearsome competitor.
