Harley-Davidson has taken the wraps off the Sprint 440, a new entry-level cruiser developed with its Indian partner Hero MotoCorp, with a public debut at EICMA 2026 in Milan. The bike was one of the most-searched topics in India over the past day.

  • Seat height: 671 mm (laden), with optional Reach and Tallboy seats
  • Suspension: 43 mm upside-down forks with 130 mm travel and twin rear shocks; 147 mm ground clearance
  • Wheels and brakes: 19-inch front and 17-inch rear cast wheels, 320 mm front and 240 mm rear discs, ABS

Price and launch

The Sprint 440 will reach the US in spring 2027, with final assembly at Harley’s York, Pennsylvania plant. It is priced from £4,995 (about ₹6.34 lakh) in the UK and around $6,000 (about ₹5.68 lakh) in the US. Other markets will follow on their own timelines.

Harley-Davidson has not yet announced an India launch date or price. Industry reports expect it to be priced around ₹3.5 lakh if it comes here, but that is an estimate, not an official figure.
