And the story:
My name is Dan and I am a chromeaholic. I would like to introduce you to my baby her name is Nessie, short for Loch Ness Monster. I love my baby I have cared for her and made her mine and there is no other like her. She is now about 99% complete…. Yeah right famous last words…
Anyway about Nessie, I wanted bike that 1. Draws attention, actually she craves it and usually gets a crowd around her in any parking lot. 2. Is Different, which happens to be the compliment I get the most, when people see the candy green paint. 3. Is versatile, I can take all of 10 minutes and remove all the detachables and a seat swap and have a different bike and a different look altogether. 4. Make her my own! I have fully succeeded on all of my missions.

Congrats man! You got my vote...as a painter I really liked how clean the paint job was, the good use of tone-on-tone, and how nice it looked overall. Classy with the wide whites, but still plenty of edge to it. Right amount of chrome - very well done, you deserve it!

Incredible bike! A St. Paddy's Day Special... just kidding, but really am impressed in all the deatil and obvious planning that went into Nessie. She is truly a work of art in a sense. Of course I am a sucker for Green and Blue paint schemes anyways, but this one is by far one of the nicest I have ever seen. Well done! Long live Nessie!
Fast Freddie

Yes, I want to get at least 50k miles on it before I do engine work but to answer your question yes it is in the future.
