I saw that outside of a Harley dealer in Hawaii.

Edit: I bought a postcard that had this information about the wooden bike:

TURBO by Michael Cooper
This original life size and all wood sculpture is constructed of twenty-two different species of hardwoods creating over 5000 meticulously crafted parts. Approximately 3 years of painstaking labor was required to complete this masterpiece in 1977.

In a word, "Incredible", I look at it, and the talent it would take to build it, then it gives mw, "Wood".:unibrow:
