No he hasn't

No he hasn't

Correct, he's confirmed that Huskihl has started the countdown, it is a new saw, and is most likely a 70cc not a 90cc. Nothing more as any lawyer would agree. Ha

What a fun odd world we live in. New stuff is out there, being driven, ridden, used by the blue collars but just whispers of it happening.

Don't know if anyone has seen this or not, just thought I would pass it along.

Looks like 72cc, 6hp, and only 13.2lbs powerhead weight.

My question is who wouldn't want one of these?

Wow, on sale in Germany already, hope it makes it here soon! Thanks for sharing!

Interesting 3 bolt pattern on the handle side instead of the long standing 2 bolt.

If that weight is accurate, that is incredible power to weight.

The 3rd is a limiter like the 661. There's a spring mounted to the cylinder up above there as well.

Less Weight. More HP.

That's just about as exciting as a String Bikini at Sunset.

Man I can't help it I keep coming back and looking at these pictures. You have to admit nice looking saw and some pretty good specs!

 

[bryanr2]

Now that we know the 572 is at least a year away time to bring the 462 back to the front page

 

[TreeLife]

I'm interested to see how they perform myself.

If they preform 5% better than the 461, they will be sweet LOL!!!
