Well it certainly wouldn't be my choice on a bike but the woodworking is by a very skilled crafter. That, and you just gotta love the tail lights.
A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort. Herm Albright (1876 - 1944)

Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

Well, OF COURSE it would stick out in a "sea of bikes", Frank!!! With all that WOOD on it, it'd be the ONLY bike that would FLOAT in that sea!!!

One thing for sure, the owner put some work into that thing. The wood reminds of a '79 Chrysler LeBaron Baron Station Wagon I had. To this day I still get ribbed by my kids about what an ugly car that was.  ---Bob

seems like an awful lot of work to do,just to make somthing ugly.
The percentage you're paying is too high-priced
While you're living beyond all your means
And the man in the suit has just bought a new car
From the profit he's made on your dreams

I wonder if it's (American) iron-wood.  The woodwork's great but, as mentioned above, wood and PURPLE?! It'd go nice with cream or another pale colour.
