I always love Simon Crafar's insights about all tech around MotoGP. Thank you! 🙏🏼
I love Simon's ability to simplify the complexities of the technology and that he's got so much detail memorised.
10:25 reminds me of Corning's "vermillion" technology for sunglasses. The theory is that daylight is very blue, and when a reddish tint, or coating is applied to the lens, it increases not only contrast but chromatic definition. I had one of those glasses, and it is quite interesting; once you put it on things look quite pinkish, or magenta, but in minutes your brain ajusts, and things look incredibly clear. Then, after some time, when you remove the glasses, the world looks flat and blue.
interesting. thanks for sharing your experience.
Ski goggle manufacturers have been using that tech since the '70s. My favorite lens were rose colored. The best in my opinion is polarized.
this is why for street daytime riding I wear Oakleys with a clear visor instead of just a tinted visor. I definitely notice the difference
Oakley prizm lens use this technology. I use either prizm road or prizm golf whilst riding/driving on the road. With either lens, makes all of the colours "pop" e.g. reds look brighter.
Simon's tech talk is close to the enjoyment you get from watching a race. Always interesting, always informative, always learn something I didn't know. Thanks to Simon and the team. Brilliant.
My man Simon talked for 14 minutes straight without drinking water 😭🙌🏼 great tech talk again!
Simon has such a passion for motorcycling. It's not a job when you love what you do.
Simon Crafar is a massive benefit to MotoGP! He is intelligent but has a real knack of getting the message across! Keep up the good work Simon and MotoGP for letting him do these tech talks!
so perfect inside depth reality talk on modern days helmets this is the strongest point of simon crafar true knowledgeable guy on the paddock
thank you man i respect your professionalism . see you next time bye
hey man if you notice my comment it would be great coz im your fan 💪🤘🤘🤘
@@CBMoto. great mate we are blessed having supportive fans
@@MaverickPrimegang Is this really Syain Guintoli? That's awesome! I don't normally see people of your stature in the youtube comment section. You must be excited about how strong Suzuki is right now. I hope we get to see you as a wildcard somewhere this year. Stay safe friend.
@@rexstetson1717 unfortunately it isnt the real Sylvain Guintoli. I think Sylvain has his own youtube channel that he regularly updates
Use Rossi helmet for thumbnail and the video talking about Arai.
AGV: Wait, that illegal!
They are all in MOTOGP connection , ALL THE HELMET IN THE WORLD goes inside MOTOGP and even all the BRAND of RIDING GEAR SUITE of every RiDER ... THAT'S WHY IT IS #NOT ILLEGAL ... LOL !! 😂😂😂✌✌✌
Oh my god, I’ve been dying waiting tech talk video, loved it so so much
Love your content MotoGP, you inspired me to start my own youtube channel.
Thank you for motivation.
Simon, congratulations. You do an amazing job, passionate, friendly, positive, informative, timely, insightful... It shows your commitment and your human and professional caliber. Thank you. I’m fact, thank you to all at MotoGP/Dorna, you guys run a superb show/business/sport, the envy of all other sports (Formula1 dreams of your performance).
The way Simon provides the information is very polite, entertaining and interesting. Thank you.
Absolutely great stuff! I really enjoy this series. Well done Simon!
Best content beside racing, that MotoGP provides. No question.
Thank you for your insights on the helmets.
Simon, you are my guru. Still learning more about our favorite sport. Thanks for all you do for us. 👌
I love Tech Talks.
Simon... you do a phenomenal job. THANK YOU !
Excellent as always Simon. Your racing heritage certainly plays a huge role in giving this series a unique and educational perspective.
Great video Simon, thank you! Having cracked my skull before and broken two helmets in accidents, I now closely follow advancements. Helmets such as 6D, Fly Formula (dirt only for now) and to a degree MIPS equipped helmets, are now managing impacts better than the traditional EPS (foam) liner. Concussion research from other sports such as American Football are driving advancements in impact management and leading to better performing helmets for all of us.
very impressive, excellent info for gear heads... tech, tech, tech... more, more, more!
Simon Crafar's passion to bikes resonates in every rider. Class act.
Arai helmet saved my life in my massive motorcycle crash in 2018. I was able to learn to walk again after 7months. Last year I got back on motorcycle. I got myself new helmet too. It was Arai again :)
I love Simon, he works so hard.
Ironically thumbnail has agv helmet and his talking about arai😅
Probably to emphasize that this isn't an ad
fir the people to watch because TBH arai helmets ain't just beautiful to look at aesthetically speaking.
Many thanks to the wonderful employees that hand build these protective helmets .
this guy is such a great reporter also! such passion and talent for teaching other enthusiasts. Big up Simon, hope Dorna will keep you on team for a long time!
Interesting as hell as always. Good job Simon and MotoGP team. Thx.
Simon is a great ambassador for MotoGP. His racing life and teaching life are inspiring. One day I will attend his Motovudu racing school!
Loved the presentation, easy , informative , clear .
I love these and I can't wait till the next one
Love these little bits. Great job Simon.
Favorite series on UA-cam
Love your insights Simon! Keep it up!
Do an explanation about the aerodynamics of a helmet next please Simon ! Loving these tech talks !
Loved this one Simon, especially as I'm an Arai wearer myself. Keep up the great work!!
Thank You Simon, You Rock ...!
Thank u so much for all of the videos. Lot of good information 💚👍🏻✌🏻💚
Greetings from Algeria, I love you
Great to see you again..
I love these talks. It's so cool!!!!
Fantastic as always.
i was'nt going to watch it at first i thought it would be a bit boring and it was only the fact i bought a new lid recently ,so glad i watched it never thought that so much went into making a crash helmet and the tech that's involved ,made me feel a whole lot safer that's for sure .,awesome vid.
Another great video!!
You Sir are a gentleman and your explanation is superb! Thank you
Nice video, so we can learn about helmet in motogp
Great explanation Simon. Thanks mate!
Love it Simon learn so much from you thanks a bunch 🏍🙏🏍
Thanks Simon. Really appreciate
Very informative Simon san ❤️
love this content!
I absolutely love my Arai, the best lid out there for road or Track. Simon Crafar is brilliant in all aspects of MotoGP
It is very cool to see him explaining all that . . . and anyone who has had their Arai long enough to take it apart and wash it now knows without a doubt we are wearing the good stuff!
Wow enjoyed this info, very thorough
Simon u saved this channel. I’m a big fan now
Hi Simon #TechTalk Thanks for these vlogs! They are great info for us fans! Please can Simon get hold of the details of Maverick's crash at The Styrian GP and show us what happened to his suit and how the protection worked and allowed him to get up and walk away from jumping off the bike at over 200kmh! ( I still can't believe or understand how he did that!) Can't wait for Misano today!....
I have two Arai helmets.Most comfortable I've ever had.I also swear by pinlock system.
Does it have tearoff too?
Excellent !
great video man !! tx
Great explanation!
Great info @Simon Crafar🤝👍😎👌🤝
Excellent !!
Excelent video!!!
I did enjoy the video very much. I've kept all my road bike helmets over the year's. One AGV Three SHOEI and Two ARAI. If they ever come up with a helmet that has the comfort of Arai and the visor mechanism of Shoei that would be a design very hard to top.
Amazing, nice to know, thanks
Super. Thanks a lot
Great information :-)
Good job.. thanks my brother.
simon does well. he always seems nervous though and sometimes loses track of thought. keep it up!
Love Simon❤️
Finally Simon hold the tatsuki suzuki's arai. Cannot wait to see that model in production, would be the nice one
The rose tint in visors is for blocking out blue light. All aviation pilots wear blue blocker glasses because when you remove excess blue light the contrast of the other colours goes up. For this reason eagles also have a rose tinted eyelid to help spotting prey.
Blue blocker sunglasses also work well in marine environments....where there is excess blue light from both the sky and sea.
Great insight thought they’d have coms tbf
Great Content 👍🏼
Loved it
Tech Talk rules!
Love these videos!!!
Thank you Simon.
How about Moto GP update these wonderful videos WITHOUT the "Suffocator".
I'd much prefer to see Simon's face❣️
Yess jam 10 waktu nya begadang wuhuuu mantap slurrrr 46
Siap luuurrr
Banar atu
3.17! I always wait to see how long before Simon says 'when I was racing'. This time it was 3.17. (And 9.01 but who's counting) Bless his cotton socks
Keep more tech talk like this.
Thanks Simon I was wondering what the riders were tearing off.
Awesome... Just Awesome. Id love a helmet like that.
Very good information sir
thanks simon. as per usual informative. lekker
Nice talk
Great video. Are any features in a motoGP helmet available in a coustom retail helmet?
This is great
Nice feature though with the " beware hot gases " sticker on the Maverick V. helmet !
thanks simon
thank you that was interesting !
If i'm using for example shoei x-spirit 3, does it means that it should pass the FIM test? or it's not exactly the same helmet like the motogp riders use?
Great work Simon.. the way you explain is just fantastic... #tiktok 🤣🤣😝👍👍
Neat video 🤩
Sir, please make videos on MotoE bikes. There is not enough information on MotoE tech avaliable on youtube. Thank you! 🙏🏼
I wonder why Mips technology wasn't mentioned . Helped me on my bicycle crash , wish I had those rib protectors though . Cracked 3 😁
My helmet has the PhotoChromic Visor, which is tinted but can be used day or night... because it changes automatically for night and day, suny or cloudy. Im surprised that MotoGp doesn't use this technology.
Motogp never go political I love you
Vale with the AGV Pista GP-R on the Thumbnail but Simon Stay in the Arai Truck :D
Love these Tech Talks and love Simon but perhaps someone can give Simon a Tech Talk about the clip on his mask. It bends and can be shaped around the nose so the mask stays over the nose and doesn't slip off. It would be a short video, but very valuable.
I sure wish Moto GP would update their app I pay for to have these new episodes on their app. I still have the ones on mine that are all moto 2 and one with suspension
Bloody hell Arai's are nice helmets.
I'm really digging the "double-glazed" donut visors 😅
There is an interesting point about you could have given a little more info. The different type of fibers that are used in the outter shell of the helmets. There are some riders that in their helmets use a mixed of fiberglass and carbon fiber, others only carbon fiber, and others use another components mixed with the previous ones.
