A LOOK INSIDE EACH DEPARTMENT

CYCLE WORLD is a retail dealership representing Honda, Kawasaki, and Yamaha. In the SALES DEPARTMENT, we handle Cruisers, Street bikes, motocross bikes, ATV's, Utility vehicles and Scooters as well as Yamaha generators. We sell new and used units in all categories. We generally have about 100 units displayed on the showroom floor with at least double that in our warehouse. We pride ourselves in finding the right unit for each customer.

Our BUSINESS OFFICE, which is one of the tops in the nation in many categories, handles the financial end of the sale. In 2004 and 2005, we were presented with the Council of Excellence Award by Honda Finance for outstanding performance. We provide sources for financing the purchase as well as several products, which can enhance your ownership experience. Some of the products include: financing, A&H, Gap, Pre-Paid Maintenance, Theft protection, and Extended Warranty coverage.

Our SERVICE DEPARTMENT consists of well-trained technicians with over 50 years of combined experience. We have a great new set up with all of the right tools and machines for the right job, which provides for efficiency of operation. For your convenience, on our web site, you can fill out a 'Service' form describing the service or repair work your bike needs and email it to us. This will save time for both of us, as well as help get your unit in and out quicker than ever.

Our PARTS AND ACCESSORIES more than ever before. We have the largest selection of parts and accessories in the tri-parish area for your Japanese motorcycle needs. We carry it all, all the brands that you are familiar with and more, and if we don't have it, we know how and where to find it for you.

MOTOCROSS – over the years we have sponsored riders in a variety of ways. Discounts on parts, accessories, bikes and service work, as well as free 'stuff' they need to be successful at the races. We have donated directly to the tracks all over South Louisiana in the form of trophies, ambulance fees, door prizes, pit bikes, and more. Look for more detailed information about our riders on the “Cycle World Racers” page on our web site.
