The fact that he always explains these with so much passion just makes me even more passionate about the tech of MotoGP, not just the racing.
If you got paid as much as him you would be enthusiastic too
They should having a drawing board like F1 to explains the situation and makes everything attractive to new comers.
But why does he keep those marbles in his mouth?
@@jeffestrada6857 he's that enthusiastic because he lives and breathes motorcycles. His incredible career proves that.
@P Digsss I'm man enough to say I'm jealous but can't knock on this guy because he's given his life to this sport and we reap the benefits of his dedication everyday we get on our bikes! Brock Davidson is another guy that has single handedly advanced my motorcycle tech!
Simon is a legend giving us this series.
I dread the thought of MotoGP without Simon. His trackside insight and these Tech Talks are honestly my favourites
The helmet technology is still lagging behind the bike technology but I know it mostly comes down to the helmet manufacterers for that.
Second that
I'm not sure what they can do to make my ShoeiX14 better but if they do its going to be big! We do a bunch of roll racing 9/10ths of mile and drag race 1/8-1/4mile. Anything over 180mph -220+mph (roll racing) and a regular helmet will try and rip hour head off if you pop up from behind the windshield not to mention issues with visors ripping up/off. I might be biased but the x14 is something I can say that does it all and cuts through the air better than anything else I've tried.
This has to be the best video on the Internet explaining slipper clutches and engine braking correctly! Simon, you are a treasure! Thank you, you make MotoGP better!
Crafar is one of the best things to happen in motogp commentary. His passion and knowledge is incredible and he gets better every year. Please keep these going.
I wish I had the same patience in classes like i do in Simon's tech talk series. ❤️ love it.
Well done and thank you Simon, you always add colour to the complexity of this technically challenging entertainment sport
wow! This is the best tech talk so far by Simon. The sheer amount of tech that goes into the motorcycle is unbelievable.
Was just about to write an identical comment
Thank you Simon, I love these tech talks from you.
So much hidden gems in these machines.
You are the GOAT.
Simon, your explanation was crystal clear; not tge slightest confusion. Thank you very much! 👍👌💪
These concepts while they can make perfect sense in one's head can be very difficult describe to someone else. Great job explaining it Simon you are a legend 👍
What would we be out here without Simon giving us the talks we need 🙏
My eyes lit up when I saw another Tech Talk with Simon. Ride On!
Simon Crafar is is such a legend.. My experience of watching MotoGP elevates to another level because of his presence. You can feel how passionate he is about the tech stuff. I wish I had professors like him during my Engineering days. Simon, we love you. Thank you MotoGP for this series.. Greatest show on earth!
Dude! That's fascinating. So much balance. Bikes are awesome. Makes cars look stupid. Watching these guys ride just keeps blowing my mind. From 100-350km/h I'm half a straight? Fcking insanity! I love it. Makes me realise how little I know about riding my own bike.
No it didn't get confusing because you explained it so well. Fantastic Tech Talk from Simon as always 👍
Can't get enough of Simon's videos. The best!
This is a lot of information.
Excellent stuff, We are fortunate to have a guy like you to explain all the stuff.
Keep it up Simon👍
I've been curious about slipper clutches but never expected to find such an engaging explanation! (See what I did there?) This was legitimately fascinating!
A difficult subject to explain and a fabulous job by Simon helping to describe it.
Excellent, thank you for this. F1 has been doing this for a while, and they take their time to explain the tech, the reasoning behind them, even the specialists and what they do with that tech. I think MotoGP should take a leaf out of the F1 book and this Tech Talk is a great start. Simon is just a master at explaining these things and his "specialist ear" hearing the clutch slip on gear change - just awesome. Please keep them coming.
One of the finest bike commentators ever👍 Absolutely love Tech Talk thank you Simon👍👍
very cool explaination of the clutch. I love these tech talks with Simon, because it's like a "diving into motogp technik" 👍
Thank you Simon.... Always a pleasure to hear your explanations.
Love the videos as always! Such passion and enthusiasm for the sport we love. Simon, have you considered a series of motorcycle bedtime story recordings? Take my money!
It's always a Joy to Watch Mr.Simon, Spot on Explanation 🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭
Absolutely fascinating stuff, Simon. Love your tech talks. You can’t take anything away from the skill of the riders, they’re gods, but it just shows how important the engineering side of the team is too in modern racing. It’s these insights that make me love and appreciate what the teams do…even more😊
fascinating! such good info...we love it to. Thx Si, you are doing awesome at explaining the complexity and nuances to us arm chair racers so don't worry about confusion or getting too detailed, as I think you have the balance sorted to ensure we get it.
Simon that was just brilliant! Thanks for making these videos. Thoroughly enjoyable and they satisfy my desire for knowing more about these unbelievable machines!
Brilliant clear laymen friendly analysts ,thank you Simon one of your best made it so clear for Motorcycles for Dummies myself included .
for the people who understand how the mechanism on bike working they will understand what Mr Simon Crafar trying to explain but for those who are still learning how the bike operate will struggle to understand.I hope #MotoGP give Mr Simon Crafar the right tools or support to make the video more understandable on the future.
@motogp please improve the audio for Mr Simon Crafar.
You'd need to spend days explaining things specifically to people. It's not doable in short clips like this. People would need practical experience and the level of critical thinking skills.
one of the best Tech Talks ever, very well done! i'm always interested on how the 'engine brake' strategy works. thank you so much Simon!

I could literally binge watch his explanations along with his gestures all day long. ❤
Thanks Simon your knowledge and relaxing voice compared to the other commentators is a great relief
I can't ride no more and I since Marco I've not watched a race live,, but never miss a tech talk,,, these seamless computer bikes are something else... Amazed everyday 👌👌👌
That was great. Simon Crafar is one of my favourite parts of MotoGP
Wow, this was a really great talk! Thanks Simon! I'll be trying to listen out for the sounds you mentioned on gear changes.
I appreciate Simon’s impersonation of a Jake brake
Thanks Si !! Love learning all this stuff during your tech talks and during free practice sessions. You're awesome !
Thank you, Simon Crafar. It is good to know how a clutch works and explained so well.
Thank you Simon!!!! INCREDIBLE info and experience. Cheers
Quite an informative and concise Tech Talk Simon.
We love finding out about this stuff as well, Simon!! Love the detailed explanations coupled with the passion. You rock, Simon!! Thank you!!
He explains that stuff so perfectly clear, I know very little about it but was understanding what he was saying. Also he made it so interesting before I knew it the 9:48 video was over.
Simon is the best
Simon have really great knowledge
Ahhhh yes makes better sense now. Really love your application to the track references, as you dissect the details! Very good job!
So proud of my kiwi bro Simon the legend. The passion and enthusiasm you show, the eye and ear for detail is legendary keep it up, love your work
Dorna if you're listening, Simon Crafar is a legend, thank you so much for giving us this guy. He is one of the reasons the sport is so much better than F1. It's about the people, not just about the bikes.
Wow the first time iv seen one of Simons vids they are excellent no bullshit and fancy graphics just fantastic knowledge. loved it Simon
simply great! Thank You Mr. Crafar!
Amazing invention for the racing industries.
I remember my early years on a GSXR 600 K5 without a slipper clutch, downshifting and keeping the clutch slightly engaged, even making a dent in the clutch handle so that i knew whenever i feel the dent, the clutch is slipping and giving comfort and accuracy on track.
Racing back then was so tiring! Glad we have blipper systems these days.
Thanks Simon... you are simply the best to explain technical matters👏👌👋
This is the type of MOTO nerd information I've been craving for years. Peering behind the curtain is so satisfying.
I always enjoy the tech talk, especially with Simon. Cheers, bro'!
Simon. Again a great vid on gp tech. You make it sound so enthralling and easy. Onto the next one!
Fascinating stuff Simon. Really great. I’m not very technical but you explained it so well that I could understand. Thanks mate
I also love that how you explain about this stuff to us you are the best my brother
Awesome. Thanks, Simon! You always bring great commentary.
Thanks man.
I still ride a 92 zx-7 and had never understood the slipper clutch.
Much appreciated. Mr. E
Brilliant explanation as always Simon, keep them coming.
Great info always watching from Georgetown Guyana south America 🇬🇾🇬🇾🇬🇾
Woohooo a brilliant qualifying session coupled with Simon tech talk , noiceeee 🙌
awesome as always 🤘🤙
TY as always, Simon! You da man!!!
I don't think the clutches "slip" during upshifting as opposed to the lower of the gears continues on a bit through the engagement of the next gear to reduce the rpm/intertia drop caused by manually shifting. Didn't we learn that during one of the Tech Talks? May have been somewhere else.
Anyway, Thank you Simon!!!
Awesome! Simon that's great! Love your tech talks..... and love hearing you talk during the races. Ex riders are the best commentators...! Seems like all the other commentators, have never even ridden a bike on track! Yet their talking their heads off about the race. In comes Simon with in depth, knowledge.... gained from experience.... not watching a you tube video. Simon is Moto GP
Great explanation Mr. Crafar. thank you very much.
Great Video. Wondered how the slipper clutch worked, clever stuff, and very well explained. Thanks 😎
WONDERFULL VIDEO!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks a lot Simon.
awesome description of the functions. thanks professor Simon.
absolute legend! seriously love tech talk
Got one on my Suzuki Vstrom, had no idea what it was, now I do, superb explanation 👏👍 thanks
I love this series. This is so awesome!
Absolutely brilliant! Great one simon
When I thought I knew what a slipper clutch did before watching this. Great video!
And it's so freakin simple!
Genius thinking.
Very good explanation. TY MotoGP.
Saludos Simon!
Y muy buena explicación, hasta uno se emociona con ver como te expresas, hasta con las manos ✋️, ✋️
De Noemi de México! 🇲🇽
Simon Crafer the best tech buddy
Excellent video, but MotoGP need to sort out the playlists on this channel - they are all over the place.
Techtalks should have it's own playlist.

Perfect explanation simo great job
Alway a pleasure, Simon!
I bought a 2020 KTM 790 adventure with a quickshifter add on. Cool thing, to get the clutch to have power yet easy clutch lever pull they have made to clutch basket with the slots sloped. So when you gas it the plates slide down the slope and engager harder. That way the springs can be lighter hence lite pull.
Best video ever, seriously love the tech
Thank you Simon , Great Information , Fascinating ! To watch the Advancement of these GP Bikes

Very cool simon enjoyed your tech talks .used love kevin cameron articles apprently he still around
Crafersplained. Love it!!!
Great explanation. Thank you. Please explain seamless gearboxes next :)
the question is that in wet race, did they put a cover or enclose the dry clutch system? how many mile does that clutch pack last? does every race they change that with new set of clutch pack? great input as always Mr. Crafar👌🏽
Why do you need a dry clutch tho?
@@steve00alt70 well, race bike usually use Dry Clutch for performance.
Something like that is not a problem for a race team, they will change the clutch probably every race or two. What they after is more performance than durability.
@@ZulRf i agree with your input. do they put cover on or put an enclosure in wet race?
