I have owned a 2005 suzuki gsx-r 600 for the past 5 years. I got a manufacturer safety recall notice on my front brake master cylinder so I contacted my local suzuki dealership to have the "free" service done on my motorcycle. I dropped my motorcycle off at the dealership on 8/2/18. I was told the dealership was still waiting on the parts from the manufacturer and it would be a few days or maybe even a week before the dealership could work on it. Because my motorcycle was not my primary transportation and the dealership was waiting on the parts from the manufacturer to preform the recall, I told the dealership to take there time and please contact me when the recall was finished. On 8/15/18 I was called and informed the recall was preformed and my motorcycle was ready to be picked up. I told the dealership I would be into get my motorcycle when I could find someone to give me a ride to the dealership and they said no problem. On 8/25/18 I went to the dealership to pick up my motorcycle and the dealership informed me it was stolen and I need to come back on 8/27/18 to speak with owner of dealership. Went in on 8/27/18 to speak with owner and the owner informed me that if the police did not recover my motorcycle and if I didn't have insurance on my motorcycle then I would "most likely" not be getting my motorcycle replaced. My bike was stationary at the dealership the entire time from 8/2/18 until when the motorcycle was stolen
