Abandoned bikes plus recovered bikes with no identified owner.

A lot of bikes that are stolen are quickly abandoned and not everyone files a police report so they store them. And even people who had filed police reports will have often done it for an insurance claim and have a new bike by the time theirs is found, so it doesn’t get claimed . They do the same thing with seized and found cars
