Truth in advertising

I am the original owner and this is an adult owned, always garaged and fully serviced bike. I have always been safety conscious so the bike is in excellent condition.

Within the first 50 miles I had a 5 mph accident where the lock for the bike broke off necessitating (believe it or not) in a whole new frame and gas tank! I have since put in 13,000 + miles with no problems. The engine was never touched.

Has always been safety conscious....which is why he/she had an accident in the first 50 miles.

Whole new frame - yet the engine has 'never been touched' - must have been hard to build a new frame around the engine. And what about normal maintenance?!?

I'm not sure I'd necessarily call it english and yours is better than some native speakers. Just a few I've seen commonly used...

LMAO Laughing My A$$ Off
LMFAO[ Laughing My F***ing A$$ Off[/b]
ROFLMAO Rolling On the Floor Laughing My A$$ Off
ROFLMFAO ...well, you can figure out the inserted "F"...
LOL Laughing Out Loud
OMG Oh My God -or- Oh My Gosh
TY Thank You
YW You're Welcome
GTG Gotta Go -or- Good To Go (depending on context)
BBL Be Back Later
L8R Later

I've even see stuff like...
FOAD F*** Off And Die

The silly acronyms go on and on, from the everyday and commonplace to those that take you days to figure out and be properly offended.

It is possible , but highly improbable.
If the bike has full coverage, the ins. company has to bring the bike to "show room condition". When You dump the bike and the tripple tree turns to the side with a lot of power, You dammage the stearing stop on the frame and the bars make a dent in the gas tank. Everything has to be R&R. Usually the ins. company buys the bike , because it is very costly repair /labor rate 60-80$/hr/ The only way the situation is possible is if somebody did the labor almost for free.
The other highly improbable part is- "nobody touched the engine"- there are not too many bikes with this milage with the original rubber plug in the head.

The arificial intelligence is no match for the natural stupidity
