Fun!
What do you get when you cross a Timbersled and a Hyabusa?

Are they modified bikes or built as snow vehicles?

A Timbersled (snowbike) system allows you to convert your bike to a "snowmobile" type setup: rear track replacing the rear wheel and a ski replacing the front wheel.
Usually it's fairly straight forward to swap out the parts with the correct fitment kit.
You normally see them installed on off road style bikes.
They make kits for a variety of bike brands: https://www.timbersled.com/en-ca/install-instructions-fitment-tables/
The Hyabusa would have required a bit more custom work I'd think.

Can you imagine a snow-going ST, or a GL?

For about $7,100 U.S. this conversion kit is a relatively inexpensive way to enjoy winter riding vs. purchasing a snowmobile. Neat to be able to convert to winter mode and then back to regular dirt mode. I wonder about the huge load that track puts on the frame vs. the regular wheel.

Yeah, no one's gonna get that in their topbox...
remember John Kerry stating there won't be any snow in 10 years?
