Is it possible you can ask the Chief Engineer about this and tell me what he said, because in this moment I have no idea why wouldn’t this be done on any Foreign going ship trading Worldwide
@RealMM! I love this motorcycle but won’t pay 50k for used one, it’s too high price. What is the odometer reading? Did the bike ever was in accident? Was the engine ever open for any maintainers? Any welding/repair carried on the chassis/frame? Complete servicing record available? Tell me some of this information. My bike is in top condition, but still think 50k is too much to ask for…do subscribe to my RU-vid channel

The German- Danish border region in Flensborg is also my home and the home of the danish minority in Germany. The advantages are that we can live there with the cheap German prices, but also live our danish culture in Slesvig (danish schools, kindergartens, sport Institutions...) 😊
Hi Danishcommander4dk! Thanks for your comment and this concept of staying close to the border is so so interesting. I've heard similar stories about the Danish Swedish border, and the Danish German border, likewise at the German Polish, German Austrian or the German Czech border. People from one side tend to move to the other for bulk purchases, especially for Drinks or Meat for a barbeque party etc. I find the German prices quite steep and when you said "cheap German prices" then I had to laugh a little and remind myself about the even higher Danish prices xD Have a pleasant weekend ;)

Jithu, many reasons why this can happen…is there rusting inside the fuel tank? How old is your motorcycle? Get the float valve in the carbureted checked…you should bring the motorcycle to a mechanic or service station. Do subscribe to my RU-vid channel 👍

Hi Rajendra! Usually I am always buying spares from the Suzuki showroom/service centre. But some small parts i have also bought from Amazon (amzn.to/3vd4FHz) from this particular seller. Let me know if you have any other questions and do subscribe to my RU-vid channel
I'm having a proplem with my GS150R, the bike is not starting at all, worked perfectly friday then didn't start monday, not even the kickstart is working, the kickstart sounds like a torque wrench when i let it go after kicking it down and it feels to light when i kick it down, please help
Hi dsav77gaming90, sorry to hear about the motorcycle. I am guessing either the kill switch is active OR that the kill switch is damaged and stuck in OFF position. Another thing, just want to confirm, you are keeping the clutch level full pressed when attempting to start your motorcycle, right?
@@RoamerRealm Hi thanks for the reply brother, and about the clutch yes i am, a few people have told me it could be a killswitch problem, how do i check?
If you are good with electronic and have a multimeter at home, it may be possible to check the circuit but if I were you, I would take the motorcycle to the nearest Suzuki service centre and if that’s too far, then to the nearest mechanic in your area. Let me know if you have any other questions and do subscribe to my RU-vid channel 👍
Wow, she really IS beautiful. U can really sense the longing, the pain and the sadness when u look deep into her eyes. U can really understand the pain of unrequited love she went through with the human prince she fell in love with. I really do deeply appreciate such incredible inner beauty in art. ☺️☺️
I guess I don’t know the full history of this landmark as well as you do…somehow my thoughts were limited to just the “little mermaid of Disney”.…speaking of which, your username checks out! Thanks @Disneyfan9135 for the comment and for teaching me something more about this history landmark :) do subscribe to my channel if you like this kind of content
How’s it going buddy? I’m planning to go to Zakopane in May but I’m not sure if there is a lot of snow for hiking,during which month were you in Zakopane?any suggestions will be appreciated, thanks
Hi Jose! Going good, thanks. I just checked with my friend (who lives in Zakopane) and she mentioned that May usually is not experiencing a lot of snow (due to climate change) but snow/ice up in the mountains stays and doesn’t melt away. So, you will experience snow but maybe not as snowfall but more the residual snow from the winter. Another thing, first week of May has a few national holidays in Poland, so, it’s a bit more crowded than usual in the first week. The later you go in May, the lesser the snow quantity. The longest I have been in Zakopane was in Autumn but I have done short trips in other seasons too. Let me know if you have any other questions 👍

the carburetor supplied with GS150R (Mikuni bs26 tps)is defective. in case if i rev more than 5000 RPM then the air/fuel (mileage) tuning turns out. so i have installed pulsar 150 Ucal UG4.5 carburetor (Rs 2500), the main cable works with this carburetor and unicorn accelerator grip. same mikuni bs26 tps carburetor has been supplied with yamaha fz, RE 350 bikes. pulsar UCAL UG4.5 carburetor fits well to GS150R, FZ, Apache 160, Bullet bikes
Excelent video. Congratulations. I work in customs and border patrol in my country. Unfortunatley, we are having to much problems with drugs placed in the sea chest. The drugs usually are placed inside the sea chest and tied on the external grid. Criminal divers do this. I am not a mechanic engineer, but i am an eletric engineer. I have to ask you something: Is there any way we can insert a small camera on the sea chest, by inside the ship? Is there any inspection window on the sea chest for the mecanics make a boroscopy? Another question: if the bags with drugs are placed in the sea chest, next to grid, can we look on the machines eletronic control and detect a water pressure (or flow) change? Thanks
Hi Diego, thanks for the nice comment and your words of appreciation. If you want then do Subscribe to my Channel, it helps. Coming to your questions: About camera on sea chest - The sea chest is always pressurized with sea water from the overboard side. Inserting a camera would mean to find an opening on the sea chest from inside the Engine room to insert the camera. There are openings available, but personally I think no Chief Engineer or Master would allow it as it means a lot of extra job for the Crew (Isolating the sea chest, draining some of all of the sea water content to de-pressurize the sea chest, removing the mountings/flanges on top of the sea chest to facilitate the camera insertion etc...AND these mountings are not so big, so, the camera will also need to be really small (smaller than GoPro)...so, overall, I am not sure how feasible this is. Additionally, you might just be able to insert the camera but you have no control over the movement of the camera, so, you can really see everything. Moreover, the grill area which you're talking about where the drugs are usually installed, are still more to the outside of the sea chest and a camera inside sea chest still won't give access to the grill sections (because the isolative valves are just before and after the sea chest while the grill etc is closer to the sea side (before the overboard isolating valve) and that area cannot be isolated (unless divers are employed and they blank the sea side using plates). Hope this answers the first questions. Next question about the flow change detection: There are pressure sensors installed on the sea water side (we need to know these values as well to monitor the running parameters, to monitor cooling efficiency or to detect ice when water temperature is really low during winter). The sensitivity of the instruments installed is not that amazing to detect a flow change due to some (or more) amount of drugs. I think if the entire sea chest area was filled with drugs, and the Sea water pumps were starved of sea water, so much so that there is really a drop in pressure, only then will it really show a pressure difference. Otherwise, I think these instruments will not be able to give you any signification data which can be used to detect drugs on the sea chest. Another thing - the pressure shown on the pressure gauge or on the remote monitoring system is the instantaneous Sea Water Pressure in the moment. The value also depends on how is the ship loaded with cargo (more cargo = more sinkage = more draught = ship is deeper into water = more pressure available (since pressure increases with depth). So, this would further make it complex for you to really determine if the pressure difference is due to drugs or due to cargo loading or due to ballast (different topic but ships can also take in sea water in dedicated tanks to increase/decrease their draught as required for stability reasons depending on cargo load distribution and navigational requirements. Hope this answers the second questions. Let me know if you have any other questions and I'll be happy to help you. Have a nice day!
@@RoamerRealm Thank you for all your wonderful explanation. The idea of trying to insert the camera inside the ship came about because here, in the port, the water is very dark. Almost impossible to see the ship's hullI using a ROV (Remote Operated Vehicle). We already tried the ROV. About the pumps, i thought that the drug packages could cause a drop in the pump pressure. But, as you said, it would have to be a large amount of drugs. Another ideia came these days, about the sea chest cathodic protection system. I thought about whether the use of plastic to package drugs could disrupt the conductivity of the sea chest cathodic protection system (plastic is insulating) . Maybe the plastic use can make the controler of cathodic protection system use more current. Do you think you would have the sensitivity to detect it? Thanks
@diegoperes2287 You are welcome, happy to help you. Below are my thoughts about your latest comment: If the water in the port is extremely dark, maybe a long term solution could be to use a dredger to clear out the sediments/underground marine growth in the port. If there is not enough UKC (under keel clearance) then these boats while arriving in the port stir up a lot of dirt/sediments and underwater visibility is further hindered. If allowed some time, these disturbed sediments settle again and maybe the visibility is better after sometime Vs when the ship has just arrived and Tugs are working along with Bow/Stern thrusters. So, if possible, you can plan the inspection of the ships accordingly or employ a dredger and deepen/widen/clean up the bottom bed of the port. About the ICCP (Impressed current cathodic protection), this is a dynamic system and measures the instantaneous potential difference between the hull and the reference anodes. Ships hull surface area is huge compared to the small area on which the plastic/drugs are going to be stuck. The instrument might catch it but due to the small area, it will auto apply the corrective current to the system to compensate for the change in potential thinking that maybe some paint has peeled off or there is higher marine growth or maybe even a slight change in the density of water. This system can give usable indicators only when ship had a grounding or touched bottom and a large part of paint got peeled off or when ship went from sea water to fresh water (density change)….other than that this won’t give any meaningful difference in measured values as the system will automatically correct and supply the right current to the hull. Hope this answers the question. Let me know…
@@RoamerRealm Thank you my friend. All your tips and explanations were very valuable. The opinion of someone who has technical knowledge about mechanical engineering is very important. A thank you from Brazil, port of Santos
@@diegoperes2287Muchos gracias amigo! I have been to Santos a few times and made some wonderful experiences staying in the city, exploring the city and also meeting some very nice people (we met more than 10 yrs ago but some of them are still my friends) Brazil has always been very special, I am from India and I feel our cultures are also very similar :) thanks for the kind words and have a great day!
