Is This Suzuki Hayabusa Snowbike The Best Worst Idea Ever?

Since 2010, Timbersled has been making kits that transform dirt bikes into capable snow bikes. For riders that live in areas with lots of snow in the winter, that can potentially give so much more time back in the saddle. It’s certainly not the least expensive modification—but if it’s in your budget and you’re sad about having to put your bike away for the winter, then it seems like a potentially great idea. 

Let’s say you love snow bikes, but you want to push the boundaries and do something slightly (OK, more than slightly) nuts, though. What if you were to, say, get your hands on a used 2005 Suzuki Hayabusa and outfit it with a Timbersled kit, all in the name of creating the world’s fastest snow bike? If that sounds like an idea that’s right up your street, then you’ll want to see what the guys at Grind Hard Plumbing Company just did. They’re based in Idaho, which is known both for its potatoes and its snow (and only one of those things matters for the purposes of this video).
