Default powerband problems

Hey guys
every time im in second gear i have a hard time getting the bike up
does anyone know precisely at what RPM's does the bike powerband starts?
I thought it was around 6K but every time I lift it i have to keep using the clutch?
I know the bike has power?

thanks

I'm not sure how to answer? I'm new to my 1K and the hole rpm range seems like a power band! If your having a hard time getting the front up in second then you should check the bike over. It should be up if your on it 5000k or so.

I'm just curious how you found out it wasn't tuned right; I seem to be having the same issue. I can take it to 10k RPM in first and I'm glued to the ground. My partner bought one exactly the same and has no problem getting it off the ground but there is a 40lb weight difference between us. I know the power is there but I just can't seem to get it up without dumping the clutch.
