What Rat-Bike did you ride today?

My camp bike. First weekend opening camp

Took the 38 and the 34 out today! Took the tank off the 38. Can’t decide weather to leave it off or put it back on. What do you guys think? Tank or no tank?

I vote no tank. Not only do I feel the bike looks better without it, I just don't think that tank looks right on that bike. Maybe if you could color/patina-match it to the rest of the bike, it'd be okay, but I honestly just don't like the shape of it, especially at the rear. Maybe you could make a cool custom tank out of wood, one with better lines and character that fit your bike better?

Either way, it's your bike. Do whatever you like with it, as long as it makes you happy. Tank or no tank, that's a really nice bike.
