Should make running clutch side up a lot nicer...

And of course they are out of stock

Jason Egan is good people, we sawed strips close to each other years ago and didn't even know it. He was good friends with my old Bullbuck.

I prefer an es light myself with the six rivet tip and lighter weight (28 inch es light weighs the same as a 24 inch Tsumura). Tsumura is coming out with a new lighter weight lightweight bar design later this year.

Any news on that new Tsumura?

Last I heard was that he is only getting 10 of the new design in Stihl mount sometime in February and nothing more for the forseeable future. Husky mounts will be all he can get as Tsumura is just trying to keep up with the demand for the 'Husqvarna' light bars. These were supposed to start arriving second quarter I think but who knows in these times.

Forgot to say the Husky light bars are rebranded Sugi's in North America and Tsumuras in Europe.

So how would a North American get a new husky mount tsumura lightweight

I assume the new Tsumura branded design will show up there when it shows up here. You probably won't be able to get a Husqvarna branded Tsumura lightweight in North America though.

Bolt on Deflector- looks like a good place to PIPE IT!

Why should Husky worry about light weight epoxy in rebranded bars?
Shouldn't they invest in the Loctite brand for all the bolts and bits?

I picked this up from ebay.

Not as refined as others but a few minutes at the polishing wheel.

Should be loud, but it will be interesting to see how much it improves cut times.

On some 660s sometimes too much open muffler reduces the torque (but not on others, all depends on the saw).

I started the saw for the first time the other day, it doesn't sound as "snotty" as my 066 with a bark box.
