You would think STIHL would get it together by now and consider the outcome at GTG's

If common sense was common everyone would have it.

That foam piece that’s there normally usually disappears/disintegrates on 441’s, 361’s ect. that have a lot of time on them. Then the av gets even more floppy. Lol

True.

Some days I wonder how Stihl even sells a saw.

Because the old Stihls are still out there doing what they should be doing and that is working so hens for people still buying them because a logger and tree service guy said there still running there old Stihls and Joe somebody thinks well if them guys are having good luck with there older Saw's then I'll go buy a new one. Myself I love the older Saw's but in my life at this point I'll probably will never own a newer one I'll work on them but that's it the price and longevity just bugs the shirt out of me.

I prefer the new saws. They are smoother running, have better filtration, get better fuel mileage, and the mtronic saws rev faster. The only breakdown I have had with any of my newer saws, was the gas cap on my 441 broke. All of my Stihl products have been very reliable. I am actually selling all of my older saws.

Cool more old Saw's for guys like me.

If you can't make a living with either breeds new or old you probably shouldn't run a saw for a living <if you run a saw for a living >

Pretty much sums it up right there.

Here is my 500i that I sold to a friend. We were cutting up in his neck of the woods for a bit. One small saw shop in the area has parts for it. This is the actual set of wrap handlebars for it, and a custom clutch cover.

I’d love a wrap for my 500i

Have you guys been by Horner's? They don't stock a lot for Stihl but they've got a few things. I haven't been in Drain saw shop for a couple years now but the guy that bought it from Jack seems pretty good.

I take the spider mount out of all my Stihl saws... but no 661 here.
Um or 441 eww.
Sharpen your chain.

I need maximum AV

I get the clutch cover, but what’s going on with the wrap handle in front of the normal welded intersection ?

Thats OEM for the 500i ?

Good way to break the av limiter or boot and makes the av floppier.
