I'm in Iraq but I've got a Spooky Tooth Tucson at home that I plan on building up when I get home. I've came up with three options. I've attached the mock-ups I drawn. What do you guys think. Which one should I do first?

The first but I would make it with a bit smaller tank, I think it's too big for the bicycle/engine.
Nice pics btw! Keep up it up over there!
 
Thanks for the advise, You get ideas banging around in your head and it nice to get some feedback. By smaller, do you mean something like this?

I spent some of 2008 and all of 2009 in Iraq, matter of fact I've only been home a couple of months. I was in Q West and while I was there I was walking to chow one day which was about a mile from my CHU and two young soldiers rode by me on motorized bikes. I caught up with the guys later and asked them where and how they built the bikes. Thanks to these guys I went back to my CHU and ordered my first engine to go on a bike that I bought at the PX the first month I was there. Been hooked ever since and have built 5 bikes since I've been home and I'll never stop :)
 
The smaller tank looks great ,might try the saddel bags streamline the same as the tank(and I like all three as they are shown,)
 
I think that they all are good looking, but I really like the 1st one.
I also gotta say: Thankyou very much, majdan, for serving our country!
 
i like the first one ,

you would never ride the last one ( well mabey on a day with less than a 1mph breeze ) .
the wind from a passing bus or truck would definately wipe you out .
 
I was leaning towards #2 until you made the tank on #1 smaller. Now I am all over #1. Very nice. And as others have said: THANK YOU FOR YOUR SACRIFICES FOR OUR FREEDOM. If you ever make it to Columbus Ohio look me up and I'll buy you a beer or 3! usflg.
 
For some odd reason, #1 really appeals to me....and thanks for doing what you do.

I would add that those leather cases don't grow on trees...not for a reasonable price, at least.
 
Thank you very much for your service. I admire you very much.

Number one is my choice but all would be great..shft.
