Stihl Bars - The Good, The Bad & The Ugly!!!!

I run a 32 and 36 on my 460's.....I don't know what Light means. lol

Put a light bar on it and you will see the difference.

When I need a 36" I grab a 394/5 not a 460.

Has to be hard on mounts

True. I grab a 660 it's hard on forests.

I use a 066 for everything,for falling though I use a 394 or 395.
Falling is the only time I run a husky.

I'll have to try one out one day. Dang things are spendy! Maybe my boss will give me a discount. lol

Compare a ES light to a regular ES on a saw and it will blow your mind.

The Stihl light bars a way lighter than any other bar I have run. Haven't tried oregons yet but I hear they are comparable to Stihl. Tomorrow I'll weigh my 36" bars for comparison. It's a lot though

I'm in the market for a 2' es light,I'm building a 064 just for that bar

 

[mdavlee]

36" is right at a lb lighter than the ES.

I wish I had a light weight 36" bar, my Forrester is far from light weight

I have a 32" tsumara light but my 36's are all standard weight.

I have a 42" forester that I would like to mill out and make a light weight. What's the magic epoxy to use?

JB would probly be fine eh? It would take a lot of mixing though

That's a good idea, I should do that to mine

I ordered an Stihl ES light 36" bar for the 660 and they called today and it is in finally. It has been on back order for a while. Not sure why. Will be the first light bar I have bought so I'm looking forward to using it compared to the standard Stihl bar I have.

Been awhile since I bought my 28", but they run slightly higher than the Sugi's. They weigh less though.

 

[cgraham1]

I paid around $140 OTD for my 28" Es light at my local dealer. I got a brand new 32" Sugi LW for $71 shipped off an eBay auction, and it will live on my 064 if I ever get it back... What's a 28" Sugi or Tsumura run?

 

[MG2186]

I just got a 28" Sugi from Steve for $105 + shipping
