2008 Lightning® CityX XB9SX Overview
This urban assault specialist was designed to excel in the metro-madness of crazy cabbies, potholes and back-alley shortcuts. The middleweight Thunderstorm 984 V-Twin revs quicker and higher than the Thunderstorm™ 1203, but still delivers all the torque required to pull away from traffic. For 2008, the Thunderstorm 984 has the new eight-row oil cooler and all of the engine updates applied to the Thunderstorm 1203. Aggressive Pirelli® Scorpion Sync tyres offer good bite on all road surfaces, and a tall Skyline seat with a grippy cover enhances visibility and control. For added style and function, the CityX features wide, Supermoto-style handlebars with deflectors, dual headlight grilles, and frame pucks to fend off minor cosmetic damage.
