Gennady Anatolyevich Moiseyev (Russian: Генна́дий Анато́льевич Моисе́ев; February 3, 1948 July 23, 2017) was a Russian Grand Prix motocross racer. He competed in the Motocross World Championships from 1967 to 1982. Moiseyev rode KTM motorcycles to three FIM 250cc Motocross World Championships in 1974, 1977 and 1978. He was the most accomplished Russian motocross racer of the 1970s however, his 1974 championship was clouded by controversy due to the blocking and rough riding tactics used by the Soviet team to help him secure the championship. He later served as the President of the Russian Motorcycle Federation.
