Harley-Davidson’s 10 lowest starting MSRPs for 2026

This ranking compares the lowest starting MSRPs across the models listed in Harley-Davidson’s U.S. lineup, accessed October 7, 2026. The “+” is part of Harley-Davidson’s starting-price display. The list covers new models shown on the lineup page; it does not rank used bikes or dealer markdowns.

Rank 2026 model Starting MSRP Harley-Davidson category
1 Nightster $9,999+ Sport
2 Nightster Special $12,499+ Sport
3 Street Bob $14,999+ Cruiser
4 Super Glide $15,999+ Cruiser
5 Sportster S $15,999+ Sport
6 Deadwood $17,999+ Cruiser
7 Low Rider S $18,999+ Cruiser
8 Heritage Classic $19,999+ Cruiser
9 Fat Boy $22,599+ Cruiser
10 Breakout $22,999+ Cruiser

Harley-Davidson lists the next Cruiser outside this top 10, the Low Rider ST, at $23,999+. Its Sport lineup at the time of access also includes the Nightster, Nightster Special and Sportster S. Harley-Davidson’s 2026 motorcycle lineup is the source for the ranking and category labels.

What to know about the first three

1. Nightster: lowest starting price

The 2026 Nightster starts at $9,999+. Harley-Davidson lists a 975T Revolution Max engine, 481 lb wet weight and 27.1-inch seat height. Those dimensions may help riders compare fit, but a specification sheet cannot tell you how the bike will feel for your height, reach or riding position. See Harley-Davidson’s Nightster specifications.

2. Nightster Special: the next step up in the Sport lineup

The Nightster Special starts at $12,499+. Its 975T engine and ABS are among the listed details. Harley-Davidson’s lineup page does not establish that this price includes every paint or equipment configuration, so confirm the specific build when requesting a quote. See the Nightster Special model page.

3. Street Bob: a Cruiser at $14,999+

The Street Bob starts at $14,999+ and is listed with a Milwaukee-Eight 117 engine, selectable ride modes and a 4-inch display. Harley-Davidson publishes 98 hp, 120 ft-lb of engine torque and 47 mpg for the 2026 model; these are manufacturer specifications, not results from an independent test. See the Street Bob specifications.

How to choose beyond the price ranking

The order above answers which listed models have the lowest starting MSRPs; it does not identify one universally best Harley. Compare the bike against the way and places you expect to ride, then check the exact configuration and local cost.

  • Fit: Compare seat height, weight, reach to the bars and foot controls, and try the motorcycle in person where possible. The Nightster’s listed 27.1-inch seat height and 481 lb wet weight are manufacturer figures for that model, not a guarantee of fit for every rider.
  • Category and character: Harley-Davidson classifies the Nightster, Nightster Special and Sportster S as Sport models; the other seven bikes in this ranking are categorized as Cruisers. Use those labels as a starting point, then assess ergonomics and intended use yourself.
  • Equipment and riding needs: Check the specific model’s engine, braking equipment, ride modes, display and other features. If you plan to carry a passenger or luggage, confirm the relevant equipment and suitability for your use rather than assuming it from the model name.
  • Total purchase cost: Get an itemized quote for the exact bike and location. Taxes, title and licensing, dealer charges, selected paint or equipment, and other local factors can change the amount you pay.
  • Availability: Ask a nearby dealer to confirm current inventory. A national lineup and starting MSRP do not prove a particular model is available at a local dealership.

Starting MSRP is not the out-the-door price

Harley-Davidson’s figures are starting MSRPs. A final buyer’s price can differ by location, taxes, title and licensing, dealer charges, selected paint or equipment, financing eligibility and actual inventory. The lineup page also advertises limited financing offers for select models, subject to credit approval and other terms. Compare the cash price and total financing cost—not just a monthly payment—and ask the dealer for a current, itemized quote.
