Description
The Shaper Bar takes the wearbar design and performance to a new level! This bar offers a unique shape that provides much better turning than conventional bars and offers a 20% weight savings too! The concave side profile on the Shaper Bar grabs and holds snow rather than allowing snow to slip by like other wearbars. While the shape of this bar improves the turning radius of your sled on the trail, the large 60º carbide provides great control and wear on hard surfaces. The "Shaper" Bar is the original and still the best handling wearbar in the industry since 2002. Made from "cold rolled steel" to the patented shape with large 60° degree cutting carbide for durability and precise handling. The concave side profile grabs and holds snow for better and more precise turning. NOTE: Now E-coated in a corrosion-resistant black finish (may receive zinc plated bars -depending on stock). Sold in pairs.

Vehicle Information
Ski-Doo GSX 550 Snowmobile (2005-2010)
The Ski-Doo GSX 550, produced from 2005 to 2010, is a versatile snowmobile valued for its reliability and handling. It was equipped with a consistent 553.4cc fan-cooled 2-stroke engine, delivering steady performance for trail riding and recreation. Initially offered as the GSX Fan 550F, a GSX Sport 550F trim was also introduced for the 2010 model year. From 2005 to 2009, the GSX 550F was built on the REV chassis, known for its rider-forward ergonomics and weighing approximately 209-211 kg (460-465 lbs). For the 2010 model year, a significant evolution occurred: the snowmobile underwent a revision and a notable weight reduction, dropping to about 198 kg (438 lbs). This modification strongly suggests a transition to a lighter platform, likely the REV-XP chassis or a variant, thereby enhancing agility and the riding experience. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):
