a friend of mine around 2 years ago took his zx10 track bike to a place called seastar ( in norfolk) to have it dynoed cool he thought , untill the bloke rolled his bike off the machine and i dont know how the bloke manged to do it but he droped the bike as he was taking it off the ramp to give the bike back to my friend , as you may imagine my friend was not to happy , long storey short it took six months and a solicitor to sort it out and my mate ended up with a check for £350 from seastar to repair the damage fairings , hence we call them shit star from now on
That's a real shame, Seastar are proper clued up on 400's as they used to import them. I've had around 6 dyno sessions there and have had no issues.
They'd better be careful when my bike takes another visit as this time it'll be wearing £1900 worth of silhouette fairing!

ive not had a prob my self , not i use them for any thing apart from poping in to look at bikes ,
but what pissed my friend off was the people who owned/ran the place as they where right richards , he had no probs with the chap who dropped his bike , just the people who own the place real hard work to deal with ,
