I haven't worked on this since last winter but I'm starting to screw around with it again. Here are things in the works:

Tune the Gixxer. I never had it running satisfactorily.

Move rider position back so foot pegs are behind the track drivers. This is going to involve moving the handlebars back and connecting them to the triple clamp with linkage bars.

Chop paddles for a rounded track.

Ditch current fuel tank. New fuel tank on the tunnel.

Ditch the radiator, install heat exchanger on tunnel.

New ski

EZ Ryde?

You have a interesting project there, I think that you are on the right track by removing the bikes stock subframe and placing the rider on the snow bike kit. I can provide you some good advice if you want it to handle properly. There has been other people who have tried this with no luck. The problem is you cannot manage riding and handling it due to how bulky it will be. The biggest drawback you will have is rider position and transmission functionality. This will be necessary if you want to comfortably ride it on anything but flat ground. For proper handling the rider will need to sit at least 16 inches further back than a normal snow bike. You also will want CV clutching or you will not be able to utilize the power of that engine.

Sounds like a snowhawk!
