ive had aftermarket bearings that felt rough new and I've had case gaskets become junk after a month from the oil and allowing bar oil into the crank area so every pro saw I do is oem except for the av bushings
Yes I even spend the extra for oem hoses
I usually have reliable saws that I can ask the guys who buy them a year or more after how their saw is running
And using OEM means second to none!
