Motorcycle dealership will relocate to Arlington in December

By The Advocate

For motorcycle enthusiasts, it’s an end of an era for the area’s motorcycle industry with the announcement that Parkway Cycle and Boston Yamaha, located at 1865 Revere Beach Parkway, Rte.16W in Everett, will be closing its doors in December. The renown Everett dealership will relocate its brand and join the team at Greater Boston Motorsports at 1100 Massachusetts Ave in Arlington by year’s end.

Parkway Cycle is one of five motorcycle dealerships owned by New England Power Sports Company. The Everett dealership sold Honda, Yamaha and Suzuki motorcycles, from sport bikes to tourers, ATVs, dirt bikes, generators, and trailers along with parts and service departments. If you’ve ever ridden a motorcycle – you’ve been to Parkway Cycle.

Over the last 54 years, Parkway Cycle has been an institution in the power sports industry, according to Tony Palumbo, General Manager at Parkway Cycle, turning out some of the finest employees and managers over the last 54 years. Some that are still with the company today!” stated the longtime GM.

“For many employees, customers and racers, this has been more than just a dealership,” stated Palumbo, “It has been a huge part of their lives and like family.”

“The racing heritage and history at this dealership is unprecedented, dating back to the late 60s. Local and even national champions by the dozens have come out of this dealership,” he said. ”The list would be a mile long of the talented racers and riders we have supported. The dealership will be sorely missed by many.”

Parkway Cycle is the last remaining motorcycle dealership to close since Boston Harley-Davidson relocated to Revere in 2014.

In the meantime, head down to Parkway Cycle at 1865 Revere Beach Parkway and take advantage of their huge closing sale now until November.
