Finally got my 06 Cityx, man im totally in love with it, its just awesome!!! Words cant describe it!!!

Tell me something, im kind a disapointed with one thing about the bike, underseat storage space. NONE.
I Bought a pair of HID h7 conversion Kit, but i cant find a place for the Ballasts, and i cant even store my onguard Disclock, what do you guys do with your Disc locks? Where do you store them?? Its quite a heavy thing to carry on a backpack!!

Thanks Guys!

Im totally in love with the bike!!!

Cacciola:

Get a "TANK BAG" and /or "TAIL BAG" !!!

Then you will have some space ...

In terms of mounting the ballasts for the HID kit. I'm looking for a place to install mine as well. The best I could come up with was behind the flyscreen. If your kit has small transformers, with built in igniters it should be fine. I've also looked at grabbing a smaller horn, to get some extra real estate. Lastly, if you cut some of the wiring shorter, solder and shrink wrap the connections, it'll get a lot smaller (no plug in connectors taking up the valuable real estate behind the screen).

With respect to the disk lock... Mine came with a belt pouch (real small), so no trunk was necessary.

Good luck with the HID kit - I'd love to see a picture or two once you get it installed...

I just take my chances. If the bike gets stolen, it gets stolen. On average tho, I am not in areas where that happens alot.

Welcome to the cityx club. Every sponsor on this board is incredible especially from a customer service point of view, so go crazy and customize your ride

if they really want your bike then the disc lock won't help...2 strong guys and a pick-up are all that are needed to steal your bike...i just lock my handlebars...and i keep a padlock on my foot peg ...is there a way to lock the disc lock to your footpeg
