I don't trust the manufacturer specs. In this case do you think they are accurate on the weight?

 

[Mastermind]

I'm not 100% sure.

 

[rocco490]

Haha me either. Screw it I like the 461 better problem solved

I weighed my MS440 20" bar,chain and both tanks full, just a tad over 20# I think power head only was 14 ans a few oz.

not 461 but here some 661s and 064...

661 Empty - 16 lb 8.5 oz (didn't have a coil in it, so that why it's on top)

661 Full gas/oil - 18lb 8.5 oz

661 wrap Full gas/oil - 18 lb 9.5oz (take off 2lb for gas/oil)

064 wrap Full gas/oil - 17 lb 13.5oz (take off 2lb for gas/oil)


well chit only 1 oz diff between 661 and 661R ! lol hmm well that makes sense after looking at Stihl's website 661 = 16.67lb 661R = 16.8lbs

hmm well this is interesting... Stihl website shows
461= 14.6lbs
but the
461R = 15.72lbs THAT is more than 1lb difference! But the 661 and 661 are essentially the same weight on the website and in real life. Weird.

and HECK if the 461R is 15.72lb then that only weighs 2 ounces less than my 064 wrap (dry)!

064-R FTW!!!

Would have never thought an 064 would be as light as a 75cc saw ,running my bubble top 660 vs my 440 there feels a huge difference in weight packing them around .

As far as I know, the early ones are, but not the later ones. There is a difference between early and late 044s and 046s as well - actually this is more common than most people believe, and not specific to Stihl. Some times it is reflected in the specs, some times not...

That's a 92cc 064.
That's why the 046 and 460 I own never get uses.
A 044 ain't much lighter and can't even be compared power wise.
A 70cc saw is completely useless to me,if I'm going to run a smaller saw I'll use my 034 or 026.
