I asked if I could have your other 550xp?
I'm going to have to run some tests first...

Stock vs muffler mod'd vs 8 pin, 7 pin, 17 different bar/chain combinations, 18 oil combos with the top 15 brands of 2 stroke oil all while controlling for ambient temps at sea level up to 1500' elevation at 13 foot intervals.

It might take a while but you can have it when I'm done.

I thought it was broke?

I bought it to fix. But I've got a couple 346's so it hasn't been a big priority.

I voted 562xp. The 362cmr was the most disappointing saw I have ever held or ran. It just lacked the "wow" factor. I didn't give the 562 a fair shake like I should have, but have a lot of run time on the ported 359s and 262s. Based on their performance, Im gonna go with Husq in this poll.

Hold up, does this forum not keep up with post count?

I am leaning towards my ported 357xp as my favorite 60cc... my ported 562xp is okay, but has the crappy carb, and doesn't pull a 24" bar as well as my 357xp. My 262 was impressive before porting, but I went ahead and had Randy port it anyways. If I can ever get some free time, I'll actually run the damn thing, and do some side-by-side comparisons of all three, and maybe even the ported 036 I'm building.

Honestly, for me, the 361 was the biggest disappointment, after reading all the hype about them on AS. I learned later (after I sold two of them) that they respond incredibly well to just a muffler mod. I wish I would've tried it on one of them before selling.

A Mastermind 262xp Eliminates the need for a 70cc saw in my opinion. The one I have is stupid strong. It's rugged, simple, and dependable just like the entire classic 2 series.
