Fast and easy not spendy at all, with the most noticable upgrade. Then the anti-stab kit. Also a quick upgrade, and inexpensive. IMO one of the best Mod/ track insurance upgrade's you can do. Track's are way more expensive than the kit. As far as clutching ask someone on here what you should be running, What do the rest of you hawker's think should be the best upgrade's to do first. most important, your the top chit now, have fun and fly that hawk.

Certainly, at this point I am not looking to do any major overhauls. Full-on winter is only a couple of weeks out so I definetely don't want the Hawk in pieces. Pretty much looking for the equivalent of crash bars on a motorcycle type of mods and, so far, that seems to be what everyone is recommending.

So far I've added a couple simple bolt ons: hand guards and bar risers

arctic cat secondary with green snocross spring or red with white stripe and 45 helix. Add as much weight as you can to the stock primary duster clutch. Hand warmers. Double simmons ski gen 1, easy to find on ebay the best all around ski setup I have found. Install red spring on rear middle shock $20 J&L snowhawk. These few things will make your hawk a lot more enjoyable and will not cost a lot.
