560xp in the states ?

LOL !!!

Selling the 560 for $100 less than the 562 will prove exactly what????????

That they want to own that market in the 60cc class saws? Buy getting rid of the porky one in favor of a lean and mean one? For a price that is round the same as the slower version of the same saw was for? That didn't sell because it was perceived as...slower and had no letters after the numbers? Doubt there is enough difference in true cost to matter. But a lighter 562 does matter. Other wise there wouldn't be a thread on the subject in cyber space.

See bob would love the concept if it was a "G" model. G for geriatrics. Heated handles for the arthritis. SO really the right saw would be a 560 style with heated handles driving a smooth cutting narrow curf .325 chain.

Is half a pound really worth all of this silliness, or is this just about getting a model that isn't available here?

Tell ya what I'd really like to have is the Jonsered large mount 2260 with 10mm bar studs so I can swap bars with my 930 Super. I think they call it the Jonsered 2262 Super 10.

That half pound adds up on 2 cuts a month, ask this forum..they'll tell you.

And it's about getting what I want, if I can.
