The Lightning CityX XB9SX is an urban brawler, designed to rule the city streets with muscle and attitude. Armed with handlebar deflectors and a headlight grille, the CityX rider grips wide, supermotard-style handlebars while the Skyline seat offers an elevated view of traffic ahead. The Thunderstorm 984 V-Twin delivers quick-revving acceleration for the cut-and-thrust of urban traffic. Pirelli Scorpion Sync tires have an aggressive tread pattern for all-conditions performance. New high-impact composite frame pucks protect the frame from minor cosmetic damage. The soft-rubber Buell X Guard helps protect the airbox from tankbag scuffing. The see-through Translucid airbox cover and flyscreen put mechanical details on display, while Villain Black wheels and Midnight Black lower body panels and front fender hide the grime of the city. Available for 2006 in Hero Blue Translucid and new Kick Ash Translucid.
