Vehicle Information
Ski-Doo GTX 550 Snowmobile (2005-2009)
The Ski-Doo GTX 550F, produced from 2005 to 2009, is a touring-style snowmobile powered by a 553.4cc (often rounded to 553cc) fan-cooled, horizontal in-line, reed valve, 2-stroke engine, rated at approximately 60 horsepower. This model was built on the reliable REV chassis throughout its production run.
Within the 2005-2009 period, the Ski-Doo GTX Fan 550F was the primary trim offered for this engine. An optional "Touring package" was available, adding features like a 2-Up seat with passenger handles, a cargo rack, and an upgraded rear shock. There were no significant mid-cycle generation or engine changes for the GTX 550F during these years. While other GTX models saw chassis and engine updates (like the REV-XR body or 4-TEC engines) in 2009, these did not apply to the 550F, which remained largely a carryover. A minor enhancement, "SilenTrack," was introduced for some GTX models in 2009, but this was not a major generational change for the 550F. FAQ:
