Anybody run a 462 head to head with a 7910?

[huskyboy]

Oh boy. There you go again.
Fumes must have gotten to you.

Stihl casts the cases for them I think. So don’t worry it’s within the brotherhood. Lol

We'll set the record straight hext time we meet up.

 

[huskihl]

That's what he says. Don't know where he got it, but he's a service tech at a good size stihl dealer. I'm going to guess he has less than six tanks through it. City guy who probably only burns a gallon of mix a year.


Steven

Wonder if he maybe has a 362 or 461. There's only a few 462's in the US as of right now. They aren't available here yet

 

[bryanr2]

the 500 may give the 7900 a run for its money. I don't see the 462 doing so.

Anything is possible. I haven't seen it. But if he has a 461 he is going to be disappointed. No comparison between a 461 and a 7910.

That’s what I’m hoping. I know it’s probably gonna be priced way beyond what I’m willing to spend for a 80cc saw unfortunately. Looking forward to seeing how fuel injection does.

461 is very close to a 79’er... but no cigar in my experiences. They are my favorite 1128 series saw.

My dad is tougher than your dad, are we in 3rd grade again?

 

[maulhead]

They should have put a plastic handle on the 462, like the 362 has, could have shaved another 8-10 ounces off the 462. I wonder if a 266se handle will fit?

Delete the chain catcher and chain brake who the eff needs them. They just get in the way and add weight. Lol

 

[chipper1]

Ha! I gots one of them ported already.

Yeah, but I was talking about that specific 7910 lol.

Maybe in few years I can start adding a couple more properly ported saws to my collection. Not in the budget for right now. The 373 that walkers did and the 2159 that t4driller (Mike) did are awesome. Wouldn't mind having a few more like them around.


Steven

I'm thinking I might add a few ported ones too .
If you ever want to let that 373 go let me know, been wanting one.

 

[mdavlee]

70cc vs 80cc don't prove anything

But it’s a Stihl so it should be 10cc better right?[emoji6]

Undoubtedly

Tell that to an OE 372

372’s are slow man don’t ya know!

I know that every time I race against one I lose.

Except for this one time...

Your hybrid is fast though

what is a 373, if I may ask?

 

[Stevetheboatguy]

It's a 372 that got typed out by a guy with fingers twice the size of the buttons. My bad.

What in the dumbfuckery is going on in here?

Oh? Ok- I thought it might be something custom between the 70 and 75cc siblings. Carry on.
