looks really nice. I’d love to see it in a cherry or other redish wood (is there a naturally orange wood?) to go with the HD colors.

That is outstanding!
I want to make “motorcycles” stand out in the lighter color.
If I were to bet, selling HD stuff at craft fairs, meet-ups, rides, etc. will make people more money than anything else made on the GF

Osage Orange has a nice orange tone, hence its name. It’s available in small sizes and high prices.
Peach is another lovely, orangish wood. However, I’ve never seen it for sale anywhere except as turning stock, and then only from private individuals.
Doesn’t that uhhh… completely trample all over copyright?

Harley is one of the companies that comes down hard and fast on infringement. Up there with Disney.

Yes it does. Will it stop people? No.

I’ve no doubt.
Oh, I know. I was being a little sarcastic. I need to stop that! 
People probably shouldn’t suggest on these forums that infringing on copyright could be a good thing. Probably goes against forum guidelines. And I don’t know all of the rules. Nor am I the police. I believe it’s the selling part that gets people cease and desist orders and fines. But what do I know.
Anyway… Don’t want anybody to get in trouble here or in the real world.

No doubt. But if you ever go to those types of events you’ll see what I mean. As noted by others, it won’t stop people.
I personally won’t be doing it, and don’t condone it, but with how well the GF works with leather I’d be very surprised to not see it happen.

Oh, sure! I wonder how people get away with it! I feel like if I tried, I’d definitely be the one that gets slapped down for it.

Very creative composition. Walnut veneer that has a standoff between it and maple ply? Dimensionality and texture and as noted, the grain direction is the kicker.
