Sorry to hear about it, but if I had bought the bike off a dealer whether new or second hand, I would expect to receive it with all recall work having been done, that apply by the time of pick up.
If however the recall notice went out after you have had delivery of the bike, then the onus would seem to be on the owner in making arrangements for the work to be done. If such an owner ignored that notice, then it seems he rides at his peril, so to speak. If his mailing address has changed, Suzuki would have no way of notifying the owner at the new address if not informed of it.
If however the bike has been serviced and was not informed that recall work seems not too have been carried out, then maybe you would have some recourse against that service provider.
Either way you look at it, finding the right lawyer would be the best way to go about it.
Good Luck.
