The Harley-Davidson Sprint is a unique product of the company's 1960 partnership with Italian maker Aermacchi. It gave Harley a lineup of lightweight, single-cylinder motorcycles to compete against imports from Japan and Great Britain. Initially offered with a 250cc four-stroke single, the range expanded to include 350cc engines and various styles, from street models (H) to scramblers (SS) and factory racers (CR).
Collectors appreciate the Sprint for its Italo-American heritage and its departure from Harley's typical V-twin formula. These bikes are known for being nimble and offering a distinctly different riding experience. The rare competition models, like the CR 250, are especially sought after due to their racing pedigree and limited production numbers.
The market for Sprints is accessible, with an average price around $6,000. While project bikes can be found for under $2,000, pristine examples and genuine racing models can fetch over $20,000. This wide spread reflects the variety of models and conditions available.
Buying Tips
- Verify the model by checking frame and engine numbers. Many bikes were modified, and factory-built Scrambler (SS) or Racing (CR) models are worth significantly more than standard (H) versions.
- Check the Aermacchi single-cylinder engine for oil leaks, especially around the cylinder head and base. Listen for excessive mechanical noise, which can signal valvetrain issues that are costly to repair.
- Inspect the original 6-volt electrical system. Many owners upgrade to a more reliable 12-volt setup, which is a good modification. Check for correct Italian-made CEV switchgear and lighting.
- Parts can be difficult to source. Look for a complete bike, as finding specific Aermacchi engine components, Dell'Orto carburetor parts, or original bodywork can be a challenge.
