im always in the powerband i dont know, it would be interesting to test. i feel like right now im going as fast as i possibly can and cant imagine running much faster unless i had a bigger motor. im assuming decking my cylinders would bring the power on lower down in the rpm range. i sure would like to try it, but not with my motor i dont have a problem keeping in the powerband thats for sure. i watch my videos over and over to watch my lines and what not and never hear an instance where i come off it.
