As the title states, I'm trying to find a good and simple explanation (or demonstration) for Power Band to use to explain to my Novice motorcycle students. Keep in mind some have never even been on a motorcycle before taking the course, nor are they mechanically inclined. Thus inlies the challange.
I know what the power band is, but I find it's one of those things that is hard to put into descriptive words and articulate for a new rider witout getting too technical on them (as that will go over most of their heads). But we want them to understand what the power band is and why it's important to stay within it.
Anyone out there have a fairly simple, not too technical dscriptiong, example, or even a comparison to something else? Any links, videos or diagrams would also be appreciated. (Vegas Rider I'm looking at you mate!)
I've listened to some of the other instructors teach the Power Band segment and have some ok notes, but would like to come up with my own, easy to understand explanation.
Thanks guys!
