The real reason the riceburner 880 hasn't been released is that they haven't finished field testing the prototype saws they have in hands of pro fallers around the globe.

Guys you can now order most of the MS880 parts on the farmertec homepage. Only the hood and airfilter cover is missing. Maybe I should give it a try. Or did someone of you already it?

Theres no gas tank/ handle, thats kinda important part.

 

[HenrikP666]

I wrote an email and they responsed that the parts maybe orderable in December...

But yeah without a gas tank it´s some kind of difficult to run a saw.

I have a tank here and plastics so I test one or two.

well nov 2020 here and gone. Still no 880 kit. wtf farmertec?

Believe it or not, Its moved back for a few months because of quality issues.

 

[Wonkydonkey]

I wonder what quality issues, as they have a few bits on the parts of repair ie crank and a few other bits

 

[Nutball]

Since when did quality stop them from selling something?

 

[wiersy111]

I'd much rather wait for a quality product then to find the issued for them. It just means I will have to build a 66o to keep my hands busy.

Betting my money on plating, piston issues or both.
They won't hold things up because of bearings. That's been proven already. If it blows up...

 

[Maintenance Chief]

Idk they've had a piston and cylinder kit for awhile? I'd like to see a big bore kit, 66mm.

What do you think is the hold up on kits being in route?

Id say sales driven business model is always driven by sales, so in the current market I'd sit on it till the markets weren't so volatile.
America dosen't slow down too much for a train wreck but the European markets are sh¡tty right now and I don't know about the rest?, but obviously a big saw is gonna do well with African and South American countries . When things stabilize that would be a good time for the new release of any product
(TP excluding).
Just my theoretical opinion, but every manufacturer has done this to some extent in the past.

That seems logical.

 

[Wonkydonkey]

Maybe they are just waiting for a slacker time.... ie after the new yr.when sales are normally down. then pull your most wanted saw out , and watch every person raid the piggy bank and buy your most wanted saw

I could be wrong, but I got my piggy bank ready

 

[mgr1]

I Read that there where problems with crankshafts.

 

[Absolution]

Looks like the got most of the parts besides the plastics now. Which is kind of important, But I gave up any hope half a year ago. It's starting to seem like vaporware at this point.
