Not yet, it’s actually in a good friend of mine’s hands right now for him to run. I’d like to try that test though. I see you changed out the black 500i rear spring to the silver 462 rear spring. Does that make a difference? Is it stiffer? I was tempted to try that… but the 661 lower spring swap seemed adequate enough by itself. At least with the bars I run on it.Done anything else to it yet?
I like them with a max flo.
You should do a test video for us with a max flo

Yup the newer stihl’s flop over like hooskies now… . Doesn’t bother me though. I like the slimmer design.Yesterday I learned the east coast 500i needs a kickstand. It came as a surprise being a Stihl.
I restored a nice L77 husqvarna last year and kept one for myself, when I took it to show the shop owner I deal with he said that they were affectionately called the "Great Pumpkin " because of their ability to roll around, when originally sold new.It can be annoying when filing the chain depending on how one does it.
The one the tree service has is stock except a muffler mod. Wears a 24” bar 90% of the timeOne of the tree companies I work on saws for has been running one for 8 months now and its been flawless. All the guys really like the WCS suspension kit and 3 point dogs.
