I'm really pleased that it helped. Happy New Year to you too :)

@@fentonwoodley5891 Thanks for this. I’ve only seen two total eclipses. The first was from a cliff top by the sea. It was amazing to see the shadow approaching across the sea but the weather wasn’t great and we only glimpsed the sun at totality for a few seconds between the clouds. Despite the clouds the one in this video was fantastic. Crescent shadows, shadow bands, diamond ring, etc. were all clear. I can see why people get hooked on ‘eclipse chasing’ 🙂

@PaoloAltini Solo un po'

@@vickryfajriansyah9821 That’s racing

@@user-papabob1949 Sorry, I don’t know the answer to this. The saw is very simple electrically, which makes me suspect that the issue is to do with your batteries. My saw works fine with all battery capacities. 🤔

Great. I’m glad it helped 🙂

@@jasonsimpson1039 Sorry, I’m not sure what you mean? The drill’s the Ryobi RSDS18X

@@Greeves ok thanks and I was referring to the size one is smaller then the other.

@@jasonsimpson1039 I still don’t understand. The size of what? 🤔

@@Greeves the SDS. Ryobi made a smaller one and a bigger one

@@jasonsimpson1039 It’s SDS+, so a 10mm shank

You're welcome

Good point 👍

@@wpdashcams5184 yes, ok

Very true, sadly

Thanks for posting the comment. I glad to hear that it helped 🙂

Thanks for the comment. I looked it up and 'XSF 900' doesn’t appear in the owners club list of known cars. So I’d suspect it was scrapped (or maybe exported) :(

Thanks for the comment. Glad if it helped & interesting to learn about the Phillips 🙂

Launched in 1959 it was quite different to the MG & TR cars offered (primarily) to the USA market. My Dad had a Jaguar 2.4, which had gearbox issues. Swapping to a Daimler V8 250 (in the Mk2 bodyshell) was a transformation that the whole family enjoyed. This experience is what inspired me to get an SP250 as soon as I'd left home & could afford it.

“Dodgy”. What do you mean?

@@Greeves bouncy

@fredbailey2076 Ah. Fair enough. The camera was on a fishing pole, which was too flexible in hindsight

@@markjones8854 Thanks for taking the time to comment. That’s good to hear 🙂

Thanks for the advice 🙂

Thanks for the comment. I'm glad you found it interesting 🙂

It's called a "Gaggia Platinum Water Container Valve Seal P0049" and is part number 12 if you look at the site I included in the video description www.mrbean2cup.co.uk/spare-parts/gaggia/gaggia-brera-v1-sup037rg I hope this helps your get the part(s) you need 🙂

@@idrishassane629 I’m sure you could get the seal out without a proper puller. A hook of some kind may work, for example. It would take a while though & you’d have to be really careful not to damage the fork tube.

I use 7100 oil 10w40 is that ok I know that BMW recommendation is 5w40 but it's hard to find for me. any suggestion about this please

@@idrishassane629 I’m just an amateur owner, so not an expert by any means. Having said that, I doubt you’ll notice much difference using that oil. I’d give it go if it’s all that’s available. Best that you check with a BMW dealer though, or contact BMW directly, online via their website perhaps

@@Greeves thanks for your reply I will check.

@@idrishassane629 You can use that. The main thing is not to mix the 2. Only use one or the other.

@@dreletronica That would be great. Trouble is they’d rather you buy a new one 😕

Yes thanks. It's been through a few hot /cold cycles now and in some very wet weather(!) & the paint hasn't peeled off yet 🙂

As you'l probably gather, I have quite a collection of part used rattle cans. One reason for making the videos is so I can remember which colour I've used where :)

Machine Mart had a promotion on giving free delivery when I got mine; otherwise I think it's about £50.

@@Greeves That's not bad at all; I thought it would be a lot more than £50.

Interesting. Many thanks for posting the comment. Good luck with it! 🙂

@@tomroot7961 Yeah, a bit smokey but a glorious sound 🙂

Interesting. The video was taken on an iPhone 12 & certainly not deliberately speeded up in any way. It looks OK to me; unless, of course, TH-cam speed content up - scope for a conspiracy theory? 🙄

@@johnling2919 The worst was when a pool of water formed around the tent; luckily it didn’t rise quite high enough to spill inside 😳

@@scottheyden6963 In fairness, if I concentrate on the basics it does mostly start first time from cold. Less so when hot & I’ve just stalled in traffic! It is good fun though 🙂

Yes, I’ve been wondering if I should fit a compression plate. I’m never going to compete with it, so a softer, more friendly state of tune would make sense.

Thanks for taking the time to comment - much appreciated. Glad that it helped.

I’m really pleased if it was helpful. Thanks for taking the time to post the comment. 🙂

@@Greeves Not at all, thank YOU for making this video. It's the only one I've seen that does it from this end and I'm going to try it on my R1200RT LC today. Bahnstormer wanted about £150 labour plus £78 for the seal kit. Was going to cough up but then they cancelled because they are suddenly out of business, so I thought I'd do it myself. Got the seals for a tenner and an extractor tool for the same (not the same as yours, it's the lever type). MASSIVE saving.

@@ArcanePath360 All the best with it. By the way, another commenter pointed out that I re-fitted the air bleed screw too early in the video. Quite right too. Best to fit the screw after the fork leg is fully in place; so that the air pressure in both legs ends up the same. (I loosened & retightened both air screws a few days later to balence the forks.)

@@Greeves Thanks. I did notice that comment and made a note. I had negative pressure pulling my leg down before I bled it. Not sure if that's normal. I just checked the manual on re-assembling fork legs and it does say to bleed them after putting back together. Getting that dust boot off the lower leg was a REAL pain even without the tube there. Had to work a short stubby flat head into it with a bit of force. I'm hoping the extractor tool I bought (should come this morning in the post) will fit in there. Starting to think I should have bought one like yours.

@@Greeves So after just 3 months, my oil seals are both leaking now. Maybe I should have replaced the boots when I did it. Not fun doing this in winter

@@kinanbaranbo799 Maybe but they did get a doctor to to rider in seconds, liaised with Race Control & up & downstream marshals to correctly manage the situation & flags, allowing the session to continue without stopping & fully back to normal within 5 mins. What more do you want?

@@asp5993 Volunteer as a marshal & you can tell them yourself 🙂

Yeah, a short tang can cause embarrassment when it pops out & your lever just dangles to the floor 😮

Hi. The unit works fine in the winter, here in the UK at least, where the outdoor temperature is rarely more that a few degrees C below freezing. It does heat the room and maintain the set temperature. The air circuit in and out of the external vents is isolated from the indoor side. So there are no cold draughts from outside, even when the unit is off.

@@Greeves Thank you so much for the info! That’s really help.

@@Greeves Do you have any tips for when the winter comes? We’re in Vancouver, the winter is not so bad but could be freezing in some months. Any special care we should do for the machine? We also have main central heating in the house too. So we might not turn this one on everyday during winter.

@@chaaimjaja Your situation sounds like mine. We have conventional gas central heating and only use the Innova to top-up; when we're in the room for a while & there seems no point in keeping the whole house warm, for example. I mainly installed it for cooling in the summer. During the winter though, I believe the unit periodically pauses heating the room while it de-frosts the evaporator (and water exits the unit via the drain tube). It certainly does this in the summer, though I can't say that I've definitely seen it happen in winter. De-frosting only happens occasionally & takes a minute or so, so isn't an issue in terms of overall performance. If you have temperatures below freezing for an extended time, it's possible that the drain tube could freeze up and become blocked. I'd think that you could break this out of the rubber tube by hand; or use a kettle of hot water. It's never happened to me but according to the manual - If the drain does become blocked the unit will stop working and display an "OF" overflow error.

@@Greeves that’s such a relief! I was worried about those drilled holes. Thank you so much again!!😃

Thanks for letting me know 🙂

@@Greeves My dear old dad was a BSA man, so I enjoyed your video of the factory, I don't know what he would make of the new Gold star, I ride a Triumph myself, so it's all good stuff.

@@johnhaverson6313 Great, makes sense. I only used the baby mill because I have one & wanted to play with it 🙂 A saw & file is all you need. All the best with it 👍

@@johnhaverson6313 thanks for the comments. Glad that you’re ok now 🙂

The valves main function is to reduce noise and keep the bike within maximum sound levels legislated in various markets around the world. The valve can be disabled without harming the bike & if you don't care about (potentially) being illegally noisy. You can simply disconnect the cables, tuck them out of the way and leave the valve in place; it's spring loaded to stay fully open. This disables the valve without flagging any faults & is cheap, easy & quickly reversable. Alternatively the valve can be removed completely & replaced by a plain pipe. This starts to get expensive and more involved. Likewise, removing the valve servo takes some thought to avoid OBD faults being flagged, or paying for an off-the-shelf 'servo elliminator' solution. Personally, I've left mine in place & working. I don't really care about exhaust sound, or alledged performance improvement (that can only be tiny). My insurance policy explicitly requires "no changes to the stock exhaust system" - another consideration. All the best :)

@@Greeves Thank you for the wonderfully quick reply. I wish you pleasant driving

It’s water cooled. I only ran it for a short time & had lubricated the water pump impeller prior to this short run. Any longer & the leg should definitely be in water. They’re great engines though, beautifully made, with rolling bearings in all the important places.
