You can literally see the passion on Simon's face :)
Explaining this is so difficult. Great job.
I ride, and I am a motorcycle enthusiast. And I clearly have no fucking idea what he's talking about. It's that much difficult...
This guy is outstanding! Bravo!! I'm gonna mount a 44 sprocket, adjust my swing arm pivot height and make a beer run. Be right back!
Better make that beer run first. Gotta have proper shop equipment on hand before starting a job!
Simon Crafar is the hot tune for motogp, I really enjoy his knowledge of the workings of the paddock. ... real insight beats chatter any time.
Agreed 100% He is the best.
He was a very good rider in his day. Good to see him bringing his experience to these videos.
True!
*This episodes = Moto gp treasure 😍😍😍 🔥🔥🔥🔥*
yep this is crazy thing wow
Thank you Simon and MotoGP. Keep doing stuff like this, its great.
"Alfred growled at me. Don't let riders touch the bike." Lol! 😂
TechTalk is by far the best series you guys have. Great work. Thank you.
Very insigtful simon. Keep it up
Crafar is a legend. More of these videos please
Awesome .. love your tech talks Simon adds that little bit of extra information and enables us to be a little more than just a spectator
Best non-racing motogp videos on youtube!! Please keep up the great work!!
Great explanation Simon...really like this series and the quality of info you impart. Thanks!
At the MotoGP level, I'll bet there are some awesome spreadsheets/algorithms used by the mechanics to work out the gear ratios - calculating, primary, secondary, internal ratios, and projected speeds for each corner, uphill, downhill and straight.
Amazing presentation, you can easily see how much he knows about all this, being able to put it into words and be entertaining all at the same time
To explain this in one take with no script is the sign of a true professional.
Please keep these coming! So informative and fascinating seeing the technology that goes into top-level racing. Love the energy Simon delivers too!
Here during covid19 still reliving this.
Simon and the way he presents the tech talk to us simple mortals is superb.
please give us more content with this guy. he's great! i'm not following moto gp very long, i'm a newbie to the task, and he explains it all so well and passionately.
Thank you very much Simon , Your tech talk made me more understand about the technology of the race bike and how the bike was setup for the rider. It is amazing👍👍👍
Love your work Simon....wonderful insights
really loving these videos. Great job Simon!
thank you Simon for that!! I enjoy every episode!
Brilliant.. very well explained. Love these tech talk series
This is so amazing!!! Thank you for making these TechTalks!!!!!!!!!!!
Appreciate the effort taken by the presenter to explain the complex mechanics. This says a lot about the passion involved in it. Keep it up👍
From gearbox to sprocket to how chain top angle effect anti-squat to swingarm geometry variable on handling beviour etc etc. This is gold content.
Omg please keep these videos coming. I love nerding out on this.
I thought i knew a whole bunch about bikes and racing....you opened my eyes wide now. Wowzers. Thanks. Super interesting.
Love your insights Simon.
Love this sort of video's! Great great work!!! Thank you
Awesome work 'Simon' love these tech talks. Maybe in the off-season revisit them and add graphics to help explain these concepts. Keep them coming @motogp
Absolutely brilliant learned so much
Amazing series. Amazing host.
I wish my school teachers were so nice with their teaching jobs...
He’s so good at this. Do more!
Really loving these, cany wait for the next episode
This is superb. Simon is the guy
motogp insane tech..
they can mod engine brake in every corner..
Crazy stuff!
Love it love it love it!.
IMHO that is a step too far
Not only engine brake..the teaction control, and if not mistaken, the suspension compression and rebound setting also
latest top level superbike has IMU measurement unit now..pretty close to motogp bike tech..
So good I watched it twice.
Simon 💌 Respect
Thanks for the info mate.
Thanks Bud!! Awesome!!
really need more of these! great job motogp!
Wow Simon!!! This Techtalk are amazing vids MotoGp is bring forward... definitely keep up postings!!!!
Thank You
Good info...thanks!!!
These series are pure gold
Thank you very much!!!!
More of this please!!!
Very informative and amazing tech expert
Good job Simon. Great to get the lowdown on how the bikes are working.
Love tech talk !!!thanks
These are so bloody good!
Loving these videos. Don't be afraid to keep being super technical...we can handle it!
You nailed it Simon 👍
Very neat look at what can make BIG differences with TINY adjustments... Thanx
These are great! I was just thinking of reducing my front sprocket by one tooth. This helped me understand better!👍
Fantastic Explanation Sir... Keep doing more videos great 👍👍 thumbs up👏👏 from India. I am a big fan of motogp
Beautiful video
I know a lot about gear ratio setting, primary and final gear from playing sim racing game many times 😁 and having many options in ratio setup like Motogp is better than limited options like Moto3, so you can set the ratio freely. you explained very well simon 👍 your background makes you know every detail of bike setup.
This guys knows a lot about bikes
His race and track day teaching experience really shows in his commentary during the Moto3/2/GP race weekends.
Love these videos
Maybe riders and their mechanics would make great world leaders.
Imagine the level of communication involved to pull off this magic.
Thank you Simon.
So brilliant
Please do more videos like this one!!
Excellent, in-depth video. Great job Simon, do I see a crew chief job in your future?
Best explanation ever
Awesome vid. I wish there was a class where it's like the old group B rally. Just too see what manufacturers can create with no restrictions.
Great video! Not too short either which is cool to see :)
Great stuff, 🏍🏍🏍🏍🏍🏍🏍🛵🍿😎
I heard of him in the old days and he was on the good old GP500 pc game :) good to have you body!!
"Don't let riders touch the bike." Priceless. I'd love to sit and talk shop with Simon or just have a beer and bullshit. He comes across like a great guy.
Simon is a Gem.
Great video
It’s amazing how swapping out one sprocket can change so many characteristics on a bike...very well explained as usual Simon🔧👌🏻🤓
Holy shit! Thanks for the info. Amazing video =)
Amazing! 😎🤙🏾
Incredible series..please post more on #techtalk
I love having insight into motorcycle tech at the premier level. If only they would share the detail behind seamless shift technology...🤞
Been watching some of your old races in bsb and you can certainly ride a motorcycle sir! Awesome stuff
Back in his day he was the master of entering a corner sideways lol ... a brilliant rider
This guy was the top of his game back in the 90's. He had too much bad luck from the Kawi! Not for that he would have been a multi champion, and i always rooted for him. "simon crafar" is a legend!!!
This is god stuff! I love it when it gets geeky! More of this.
Simon is the kind of guy had 11000rpm things to say but keep it cool with 1 line.
MotoGP is on free to air TV in Australia, but the lower classes aren't. They're so much technology that's in all three classes, that I'd love to see all of the races and more of this type of behind the scenes videos.
Same in the USA. I subscribed so I could watch the qualifying and such. But now I am hooked on moto3, which is great racing.
That was beautiful..
Hi Simon, Thank you for the wonderful explanation.
I have a small and basic question, what is the different between engine braking and rear brake braking?
Please forgive me if it sound stupid 😊
I luv this #techtalk videos
Gold!!
Back in my 250GP days my Honda had a cassette gear box with multiple options for each gear. It only took a few minutes to switch them out and Honda provided a spread sheet to show you what the ratios would be when you mixed them up. It was so confusing with small print I had it copied to 11x17 paper just so we could read it. Luckily once we figured out how to use it we found we would change only 2nd to 4th gears along with the sprockets most of the time. Oh and when of those internal gears broke they made horrible noise so you knew right away you race was over.
This is a1 content, finally, you guys are paying attention
So when I raced and wanted to keep the swing arm length, we would use 2 master links; in between the 2 master links we had different small lengths of chain, one link or one link and a half up from 1 link(link and a half) up to 15 links, etc. Worked great, in 13 years never had a problem doing this.
I thought that was the normal arrangement. Simon seems to imply that you cannot change the chain length on a Moto2. I'm surprised...
Just came across these tech talks tonight, not sure why I haven't seen them, but looks like i'll be up late.
Bless 🙏🙌
Great episode! if you add graphics it would be nice
Dear Mr. Crafar. I hope this question reaches you. MotoGP channel please help. Can you make a video describing the differences between the bikes? Strengths and weaknesses, pros and cons of each. Please.
Wow. That's insane.
These tech talks are the fucken best
Great explaination. Technical things make people stick to motogp.
And this is why we love moto gp
It's like listening of physics with rain man of motorcycles 🙏❤️
