A question I get asked a good ammount (and never really have an answer for) is the reason for high revs. If you have a 2000rpm powerband that produces the same amount of power, why does it matter how many rpm's you get the power?

powerband of 8000-10,000
vs.
powerband of 4000-6000

Why would one be better than the other?
