This liquid-cooled powerhouse is equipped with electronic fuel injection (EFI) for optimal performance and fuel efficiency, ensuring that every ride is exhilarating. The automatic gearbox and belt final drive provide smooth, hassle-free shifting, allowing riders to focus on the adventure ahead rather than managing gears. With a well-designed double A-arm suspension system, the Goes 550 offers a plush ride over rough terrain, boasting a front and rear travel of 254 mm (10 inches) that absorbs bumps and obstacles with ease. The 2011 Goes 550 is packed with features that enhance usability and rider comfort. The electric start system ensures quick and effortless ignition, while the option for 2WD/4WD and a front differential lock gives you the flexibility to adapt to changing conditions, whether you need additional traction on slippery surfaces or a lighter touch on firm ground. With a generous fuel capacity of 21.60 liters (5.71 gallons), this ATV is built for the long haul, allowing riders to venture farther without the constant worry of refueling. Available in striking color options like Advantage Timber Camo, Red, or Green, the Goes 550 also boasts an impressive ground clearance of 279 mm (11 inches), making it highly capable in various off-road scenarios. In summary, the 2011 Goes 550 is a formidable contender in the ATV market, offering a blend of power, versatility, and comfort that caters to both adventurous riders and practical users. Its thoughtful engineering and robust features make it a reliable choice for anyone looking to explore the great outdoors.
