2005 Ski-Doo MX Z Trail 500 SS

This is another variation of the so popular Ski-Doo MX Z. The Trail is no step down from the Ski-Doo class. It performs just as well as all the other MX Z models. It is a great all around sled, but it specialty is races as this is one really fast machine. Don’t be fooled by the 2005 model, the Trail is just as good as many of the newly created snowmobiles, if not even better than some of them. There are absolutely no complains about it causing problems. On the contrary other riders are sharing that it is ready and good enough to go right out the store. Features of the MZ X Trail include:

M.S.R.P. *    $6,399.00
ENGINE    High Output Rotax 550 ss
CARBURETION    TM-40
SUSPENSION    Front: R.A.S., Motion Control shocks,
Rear: SC-3, Motion Control shocks
BRAKES    Brembo hydraulic
EXHAUST    Single tuned pipe
SKIS    Precision dual-carbide
TRACK LXWXH    121 x 15 x 1 in.
SKI STANCE    47 in.
DRY WEIGHT    459 lbs.
OIL CAPACITY    3.7 qts.
FUEL CAPACITY    10.6 gal.

Starting the snowmobile is an easy job, no matter the conditions out there. The sled is comfortable and provides much leg. Steering is also easy and unlike some other models even after a long ride there are no vibrations on the handles.  It’s one very powerful machine and it comes on a low price – can you wish for something better. So far this is the lowest priced 2005 model Ski-Doo snowmobile I’m coming across. Compared to the Mach Z X it’s half its price and performs just as good. If you’re on a hunt for good, but cheap snowmobile, I think you just found it.
