2026 Lance Havana Classic 125
2026 Lance Havana Classic 125
The retro Havana with real commuting muscle - a 124cc engine good for about 59 mph, still chrome-trimmed and SYM-built. Engines over 50cc need a Florida motorcycle endorsement; returns about 90 MPG and is backed by a 24-month unlimited-mileage warranty.
Why riders pick the Havana Classic 125
The Havana Classic 125 keeps the Italian-retro looks of the 50 and adds the power to keep up with city traffic. The 124cc four-stroke pulls to about 59 mph — enough for arterial roads and longer commutes, not just the beach blocks.
It's still SYM-built in Taiwan, still chrome-trimmed and steel-fendered, and still sips fuel at around 90 MPG. The step up from 50 to 125 is the sweet spot for riders who want retro style with real-world commuting muscle.

Frequently asked questions
Is Lance a Chinese scooter?
No. Every current Lance is built by SYM (Sanyang Motor) in Taiwan — Honda's Taiwanese manufacturing partner for decades and a top-5 global scooter maker. Lance is the US distributor; the engine, frame and CVT are SYM.
Do I need a motorcycle endorsement to ride this in Florida?
Yes. Because the engine is larger than 50cc, Florida requires a motorcycle endorsement on your license plus motorcycle insurance. If you'd rather skip that, ask us about the 50cc models. See our Florida scooter law guide.
Is the Havana Classic 125 freeway-legal?
It will reach about 59 mph, which is fine for most surface streets and many causeways, but it's not built for sustained interstate speeds. For 65+ mph highway runs, look at the 200i.
What does the warranty cover?
A 24-month, unlimited-mileage warranty — parts and labor, tire-to-tire — honored by us as your authorized Lance dealer. We register it for you at delivery, perform all service in-house at 1743 Bay Road, and stock common parts on-site.
Can I test ride the Havana Classic 125 before I buy?
Absolutely. Book a test ride or call (305) 538-7878. Bring a valid driver's license and closed-toe shoes.
