Dynobike (Vic) are thieving C*#TS

In case anybody on here is thinking of taking their bike to Dynobike in Moorabbin to have work done - DON'T.
Being in the trade for years I've heard lots of ripoff/shit work/arrogant arsehole stories about Dynobike but never having had anything to do with them personally, I kept them to myself.
A good mate of mine took his ZX6 trackbike there last week because he hadn't ridden the bike in a year & the carbs were all gummed up & the bike was running like shit.
So Dynothief says "No worries mate, we'll sort it out for you"
Dave goes to pick the bike up later that day & the bloke hits him with a fucking $900 bill... that's not the punchline, he says "The carbs were blocked up real bad & I hadta strip 'em right down, blah, blah, bullshit, bullshit, & I put it on the dyno & it's running rich" He gives Dave the dyno sheet & there's not even an A/F trace on it, he reckons the main jets are 22s & hands Dave a set of what he calls 15s & tells him to put them in & it'll fix it.
A- When Dave bought the bike, it had been freshly setup by Dynoripoff a month before & had receipts & dyno sheets to prove it, Dave hasn't touched the jetting since he's owned it & it's been running fine, so how the fuck can it be running THAT rich all of a sudden? I smell bullshit.
B- I have a lot of experience with Kawasakis, especially the carburettors & there is NO FUCKING WAY the bike would run even half right with 220 (not 22s as the ripoff/bullshit artist calls them) mainjets in it & if it's that far off in the jetting then it's their fault because they fucking jetted it in the first place.
So he hands Dave a set of 15s (presumably 150s) & says put these in & you'll be right... HOW THE FUCK CAN SOMEBODY ASK A CUSTOMER TO DO THEIR OWN JET CHANGES WHEN THE WHOLE REASON THEY BOUGHT THE BIKE TO THEM IN THE FIRST PLACE WAS BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T KNOW SHIT ABOUT CARBS SECONDLY, NOBODY IN THEIR RIGHT MIND WOULD TELL SOMEBODY (ESPECIALLY SOMEONE WHO DOESN'T KNOW WHAT THEY'RE DOING) TO DROP THAT FAR IN JET SIZES WITHOUT AN A/F READING TO GO OFF - THERE'S A BETTER THAN GOOD CHANCE THAT IF DAVE PUTS THOSE JETS IN, HE'LL END UP WITH 4 BOTTOMLESS ASHTRAYS.
There is NO POSSIBLE WAY that anyone can predict even roughly what the A/F ratio will end up being with such a radical jet change - it's the stupidest & most reckless thing I've ever heard. So lets say Dave puts the 150 jets in & leans the fuck out of it & melts the pistons, what do you think DynoSHITSTAIN will say... my bet is something like "I never told you to do that mate"
If you're going to charge somebody $900 for doing a few hours work then surely you could have the decency/concience to finish the fucking job you fucking Kiwi SCUMBAG.
I URGE EVERYONE ON THIS FORUM TO TELL EVERYONE YOU KNOW WHAT A PACK OF RIPOFF/BULLSHIT ARTISTS DYNOBIKE ARE, we need to weed scum like this out of the motorcycle trade.
