2007 Ranges | 2006 Ranges | 2005 Ranges | 2004 Ranges
An urban middleweight that packs a real punch, the Lightning CityX XB9SX is the perfect tool for the rider who needs to slice through congested city traffic or blast away from green lights. The tall seat helps the rider to see over traffic. A new, grippy vinyl seat cover material offers enhanced control and comfort. Wide, supermoto-style handlebars feature handlebar deflectors, the dual headlights are covered with an aggressive grille and high-impact composite frame pucks protect the frame from minor cosmetic damage.
The open tread pattern of Pirelli Scorpion Sync tyres offers outstanding, all-conditions grip and traction. The Lightning CityX is powered by the Thunderstorm 984cc V-Twin that revs quicker and higher than the Thunderstorm 1203cc while still serving up a satisfying portion of torque. The see-through Translucent airbox cover and flyscreen in Hero Blue or Kick Ash put mechanical details on display, while Black wheels and Midnight Black lower body panels and front fender don't show the grime of the city.
