Oh here's a fun update: the bike had 11 miles on it when I took possession. The bike currently has 11 miles on it. However it is missing a turn signal and the left handlebar is bent completely down. That's right, I dropped it while trying to load it by myself onto the back of a budget rental truck...IN THE DEALER PARKING LOT.
Good thing I was already planning on replacing everything that was damaged!
(and just to clarify, I'm not a new rider and this isn't my first bike...just my first bike drop this early in our relationship!)
