You want the mtronics or non-mtronics version?

 

[Ron660]

While I was at it I had a little photo shoot of all the 70cc saws I have.

461 to the 462

441 to the 462

462 to the 044

What's the weight of the 462 and 044?

 

[MustangMike]

I would take the M Tron version, I like how my M Tron saws run.

I think the 462 will be a bit lighter than most 044s, and have more CCs, S/B quite a saw! I think the 462 is 13.2 lbs, just a little heavier than a 362 Ver I or a 562 (both about 13 lbs).

The MS 500i is also supposed to be under 14 lbs, and 80 CC, kinda reminds me of an 064 with fuel injection!

I read the ms500 is scheduled for release in the U.K. in 2019.

Mike, I think I'll wait for the lightweight fuel injection 80cc ms500 rather than the 462. But I might be waiting a while.

Start saving your change now. Lol

 

[MustangMike]

It will be very interesting to see how the two compare, hard to beat the power to weight of either.

The weight + size of the 462 should make it a great all around saw, and the 500 may put a hurtin on the Dolmar and Husky counterparts in the 70 cc range.

 

[RI Chevy]

Don't speculate and ruffle amt feathers Mike. Lol
Gotta wait until someone here in the states has one in hand to see. [emoji106]

I sure as hell hope a 80cc FI saw puts a hurtin on a 70cc saw.

77 CC and 79 CC are not much different than 80 CC, but all too often I see them compared to plain old 70 CC saws.

 

[Ron660]

If the ms500 80cc is a success maybe the next model will be the ms600 94cc. Just guessing/hoping.

 

[porsche965]

I believe the Husky 572xp will have it's hands full.

 

[RI Chevy]

Pooping out screws again I bet. LMAO

This makes me wonder if dolmar is quietly working on a Reed valve 7900 replacement. And when Stihl and husky are bickering over their new 70cc saws dolmar gonna go BOOM! Here's a 14 lb 79cc Reed valve torque monster with tunable carb!

 

[MustangMike]

Jeff ... Be Nice,

John ... Hope you are not holding your breath, but it would be nice!

Too bad it will be stamped Makita on the side. Sad to see Dolmar go away.
