Harley-Davidson, known worldwide for its premium and high-end cruiser bikes, is now moving towards a new change. The company has recently announced its new bike “Sprint”, which is expected to be priced around ₹ 5 lakh. This will be Harley-Davidson’s cheapest bike ever, which has been specially designed targeting young riders and new customers.
But the question is whether this bike will be able to achieve a new position for Harley-Davidson in the Indian market? Let’s know about this bike in detail – its price, features, launch date and how it can make its place in the market.
1. Harley-Davidson Sprint: What is special?
Harley-Davidson has designed the Sprint under the new motorcycle architecture. This bike will be introduced in the entry-level segment and its aim is to reach the youth and mid-range budget riders.

Key Features:

- Design: Classic Harley style, but with a modern and sporty look.
- Weight: May be lighter than earlier models (such as Street 750).
- Technology: Digital instrument cluster, LED lighting and multi-riding modes.
Price:
The expected price can be up to ₹5 lakh (ex-showroom), which is much lower than other Harley-Davidson bikes (such as Iron 883 or Forty-Eight).
2. When will it enter India?
The Harley-Davidson Sprint can be first unveiled at the 2025 EICMA Motor Show (November 2025). After this, it can be launched in the global market in early 2026.
In India, its entry can be done by March-April 2026. However, it will depend on whether the company brings it as a local production (Made in India) or a CBU (Completely Built Unit) import.

3. Will it be a flop like the Street 750?
Harley-Davidson had earlier launched an entry-level bike like the Street 750, but it was not very successful. The reasons were:
- Heavy weight and low mileage
- Competition with competition (Royal Enfield, KTM)
- High maintenance cost
- But with the Sprint, the company has learned from these mistakes and made it lighter, better performing and less expensive.
- 4. How will the market respond?
There are many great bikes available in India between ₹ 3-6 lakh, such as:
- Royal Enfield Hunter 350
- KTM 390 Duke
- Bajaj Dominar 400
If Harley-Davidson Sprint offers brand value, better features and competitive price compared to these, then it can make its place in the market.
5. Should you buy?
If you want Harley-Davidson’s brand name and cruiser experience, then Sprint can be a good option. But if you want mileage and low-maintenance, then you should also consider KTM or Royal Enfield.
Conclusion
Harley-Davidson Sprint can set a new trend in the Indian market if it launches with the right price and features. Its entry can be waited till early 2026.
