I think the ugly pin stripes must have been a factor. Nobody else wanted to deal with them.

The previous owner must have thought that bike needed a little something to accentuate "the mono tone", and had the right idea I think, just went in the wrong direction.
This is what happens when you get an artist together and the owner together and neither one knows what the other one wants.
Looks better being restored back to the mono tone.
