Harley-Davidson has teased the Sprint 440, an entry-level cruiser powered by a 440cc single-cylinder engine. Producing 27 hp and 38 Nm, it will be built in India, with a target price under $10,000. The model sits at the heart of CEO Artie Starrs' "Back to the Bricks" strategy, with an Indian-market launch planned within 2026.

A sub-$10,000 Harley used to be a pipe dream here in America — and CEO Starrs going after it for real is what Back to the Bricks is about. I've seen kids in Oakland struggle just to afford a used Harley. Even if it's Indian-built with a Hero engine, slapping that brand name on it means more people get into the scene. That's a good thing, straight up.

A sub-$10,000 Harley is a shockingly low price compared to their usual price range.

A 440cc single from Harley is such an unusual configuration — a completely different direction from their existing lineup.

A 440cc built in India — I'm curious if this follows the same strategy as the Harley Sprint out of the Hero partnership.

Positioned as the core of the 'Back to the Bricks' strategy — the naming alone conveys just how serious and committed the CEO is.

The core of the new strategy after the CEO change — if this doesn't deliver results, Harley's whole direction is going to come into question.

The X350/X500 only just ended production, and now another entry-level bike — honestly I'm not sure there's any guarantee this one succeeds.

Since it's still at the teaser stage this time, I'm hoping the design reflects lessons learned from the previous failure.

A 440cc single at 27hp and 38Nm, under $10,000 — unusually modest specs and pricing for Harley.
