All u peeps were wrong that speedy222 person was wrong about the zebra powerband i looked at the pic and that is a boostbottle .you cant buy powerbands. you can buy boostbottles for a 2stroke quad for around $30.00.and if nobody beleaves me go to denniskirk.com and search it up.on offroad search boostbottles.so everybody was wrong this big long disscution about a stupid power band and you's are wrong i dont think anybody from here knows wat there talkin about anymore.

Just in case he actually dosent know what a powerband is... (ive met lots of people who dont). On a twostroke it refers to the rpm range when the energy waves in the pipe start causing an effect similar to trubo or supercharging. The first cone pulls extra mix out of the cylinder so your filling the cylinder and then some. The second cone bounces the outbound mixture back towards the cylinder. It travels at a certain speed based on the temperature so the length of the pipe decides when the mix will try to go back through the exhaust port and back into the cylinder. When your not in the powerband the mix is coming back and running into the side of the piston.
Just imagine a coke can being filled with coke, the nozzle sprays in way too much and some shoots out the top. Then the top slams closed. When the powerband comes on that extra gets forced back in by pressure before the top closes but somtimes the timing is off and it dosent get in, it just runs into the closed bottle top. That would be when your out of the powerband. (I know nothing of coke bottling, this is hypothetical).
. Longer waves have more of a chance to get back in but not as much gets back in since its stretched out. Shorter ones cram more in at the peak time but the peak time is cut short. So you have wide powerbands and light switch powerbands. The pipe and exhaust port decide all this.
If you say a fourstroke has a powerband then your just referreing to one that has the same feel as a two stroke. Just picture a band painted on the tach between certain rpms and the motor comes alive in that band. Voula powerband.

look at jackel getting all technical on us. jackels wrong, the powerband im reffering to is located under the key switch. its about 1" X 3/4" and can be any color or combinations based on the type and quad you have. And you cant find anything on the Zebra powerband is because it hasnt come out yet, it uses a special material from ASIA to get the right definition. dont listen to jackel he doesnt know what he is talking about
