Simon is like the cool science teacher whose class you actually looked forward to
i think he just found me
Best Comment of the Day!!!!!!!
He’s just gone and asked the tech engineers how it works then come on TH-cam acting like he’s a moto gp engineer 😅 he don’t know what he’s talking about he’s just telling us what he’s been told not what he knows.
Hahaha the team wrap the exhaust in some heat proof stuff ? Hmm, ok buddy
@@jimmyboimazarti1234 He's asking the engineers about this generation ones. He is a rider himself back in the day. Not every rider knows everything except the mechanics or engineers
Another interesting and detailed look into the extreme engineering of MotoGP. As always Simon does a 🔝 notch job breaking it down for everyone to understand. Keep it up Simon, you rock!!!
Never stop these tech talks, please!
There might be some viewers out there who are old enough to remember the old Suzuki RE5 rotary engine bike that had the same type (although primitive) of forced air exhaust pipe cooling because of the tremendous exhaust heat that was generated from the rotary engine- they had large air openings where the headpipes met the front of the mufflers to try to reduce the exhaust pipes temperature, but riders were still burning the soles of their boots - Great information Simon as always- These Moto GP engineers are true geniuses-
I was going to post about the RE5 exhausts but you beat me to it 👍
@@Pikestnt I remember seeing an episode of Jay Leno's garage a few months ago about his RE5 and remember him complaining about the excessive exhaust heat and the bad mileage, but he still considers it as one of his favorite Japanese exotics -
You have to love this guy! He provides such simple explanations to complex problems.
Thank you so much Simon and MotoGP for these insighful tech talks. It would be great to have one on Traction Control and how it is used by riders currently!
Love the tech talk series Simon, always get to learn the intricacies of racing at the pinnacle. BTW, those medical tweezer things are called Hemostats.
@@trant7motogp714 Very informative comment..
or simply 'arteries'
Simon looks like every word that comes out his mouth is a surprise to him. But I love him and the tech talks!
"A Thousand Miles" playing in the back 😆
Yes I love the techno aspects of just about anything. It was my career field , working with Experimental Flight Test for almost 30 years. Troubleshooting and design support with some really sharp Engineers was a blast! Probably why I like your tech talks so much. You have the passionate perspective and energy we all had!
Thankyou Simon and crew
So if that bike is sitting there idling for too long, it'll boil the fuel. That's crazy
Thank you Simon, brilliantly explained please keep them coming.👍
Those tech talks are amzing.
Thanks mr Crafar!
THANK YOU SIMON .HAVE A GOOD DAY.
Simon Crafar is a very good addition to motoGP. Wish you would be back on the Red Bull WCM Yamaha. Keep the Tech Talks coming, please.
Uh no, he’s really weird. You know always says you know and Dylan Gray was way way better !!!
Great video! And a great explanation of how that heat affects bikes and fuel. We base our business on this exact principal and solving these exact problems. We have helped and worked with many race teams on getting rid of this issue.
Thanks Simon
all these years I thought the fuel tank was at the front.. I learn something new from today's tech talk.. thanks Simon..
Yeah its airbox mainly now. Engine power and air management is paramount ofc. Quite nice trick IMO
Yes some road bikes do the same
Airbox since efi become standard.
I can listen to simon talk tech all day long
Thank you. Loved the music
Good stuff Simon keep these Tech talks coming , I am new to MGP , I always learn something .

Motorcycle engines are designed back to front , they’re old fashioned design came about because of the carbs . We proposed a reverse design the exhaust exiting from the rear so the heads would be the opposite way round . The exhaust would integrate into the rear hugger . It’s would be a fuel and air injection system and a larger radiator in clear air at the front with no headers getting in the way or bleeding hot air . The power output would be 40% greater . Suzuki was given the offer but said “ not a the moment “ . As was using a rear view camera to a multi led screen , no need for mirrors and taking your eyes of the road.
Very much informative and useful information.
You love this stuff Simon and we love you tell us about anything
best teacher this guy
Thanks Simon as always. Happy to learn new tech stuff.

When Crafar talks, I listen!!
Always wondered what those scissor looking things were 🤣
Scissors.
“Hemostats” is what they really are. Surgical tool.
Hemostats
very interesting, plz keep them coming!
Thank you Simon. Brilliant as always !!!👍👍👍

Simon big fan of you I like your explanation so so much..
The best one I like is aprila talk
WOW THAT CENTRE OF GRAVITY THING BLEW MY MIND 💪🤞👍🌍😎👌 ANOTHER EPIC EPIC VIDEO BRO, KIND REGARDS BEN FROM NZ 👌
I'm the kid in class who can't get his mind of the piece of metal hitting the floor and the music.
Kidding aside... very cool stuff Simon and very interesting.
I would have liked to see a few shots 'the details' on an GP bike... again I'm that DA kid in the back of the class.
Gotta love the low tech tech talk. 🤘
This is one issue i found with older carbed air cooled 4 cylinder bikes having the carbs tucked out of the wind they really took alot of heat and would make the bike sputter
Love these breakdowns
Brilliant. I love the tech segment and the way Simon presents it is great. 🙂
Thanks
I love this tech stuff too! THANK YOUUUUUUUU
*Simon and MotoGP, can you guys do a tech talk on low-sides and high-sides*
Thank you so much ✨❤️🙏
Great tech talk Simon
How did I miss a tech talk for 6 days!?!
I Iike the way to explain the best teacher ever
This is one of my favorite tech talks. Super interesting!

Masterpiece Presentation
Simon, I being an engineer myself by profession and also a rider, i like this stuff as much as you do.
I feel there is an engineer hidden inside you also

Very interesting. Thanks Simon.
The word you were looking is Fibreglass exhaust wrap.
Amazing stuff
My first tech talk, first five seconds I thought he was having a stroke
Cheers Simon 👌👊
Great video Simon, very interesting how they manage that heat, thx
Why isn't a ceramic coating (something like Zircotec) used on the exhaust and engine?
Engineering Marvel's hats off to them
excellent chat simon
awesome simon !
The red border on the thumbnail makes it look like I’ve already watched the video. Missed a load of these tech tips.
Next tick talk, about front and rear ride hight device, right SIMON
"a sheet of metal" i bet its gold just like the original mclaren f1 roadcar
Great stuff Simon, as always.
Can you do a segment on how they check if a bike is bent/not bent after a big crash? If a bike goes flipping through the gravel some stuff is obviously bent or wrecked. Sometimes though, the damage might not be so obvious. Do they have a jig or some type of laser set up to check if the frame or forks or whatever is bent after a crash?
Tech Talks are good with animation!!
Well done
Simon you are the king of MOTOGP we love to watch you talk about tech in motogp

Interesting thing MotoGP 👍
Moto gp lover... thanks 💙🙏👍
I hope you can show us for better understanding
great to see Simon without the mask, love your style Sir.
very interesting. Would it be too dangerous to pressurize the fuel?

Yeh thats a good one Simon!
Dream content: Him explaining how sToprak breaks 🤩
I've always wondered what those clamps were when they're on the grid waiting for the race start
The Traction control in the communication device of Mr. Crafar is setup to high. It cut's his information output.😂
what's the point of clamping the overflow of it will spill over anyway
わかりやすい説明サイモンサンクス!
What about using a radiator for the fuel?
More weight 🤔
I love this
Back in the day, one of the complaints about the old Brit bikes was the heat-induced 'blueing' of the exhaust pipes. Honda solved that problem by using dual-wall exhaust pipes, with the chromed outer pipe just for show.

If this guy was my physics teacher, I would be NASA engineer right now. And he would probably won't mind that I park my motorbike on his spot.
thank you very much mr crafar ;D
Always wondered what the medical crimps were for, thanks Simon
I hope Simon was just making his way downtownnnnn.
Im surprised that they are not using the material that they used on the shuttle to keep things cool
seems like a ceramic thermal deposition coating would be appropriate
moto gp harus perbanyak konten mengenai teknologi motor dari pada vidio kecelakaan , contoh dong akun F1 yang fokus ke teknologi motor
That the case of V4 engine...how about inline 4 that are used by Yamaha and Suzuki
I was going to say just put a cooling element into the tank, then you can cool it down to below 0. I would cool it down as far as possible, if i was a good racer. More hp. Denser mix. low temp makes hp
Against the rules
I wish Simon was my teacher what a legend
Simon could be explaining how potery is made and I'd still watch it
