Stihl MS881! The rumors begin

[birdmeter]

what a new monster!

What I can see:
-new covers for carburator and engine
-sprocket cover with captive nuts
-air filter like MS 661

-MS 880 fuel tank
-MS 880 handle
-modified MS 880 crankcase
-MS 880 muffler
-3002 mount


Thumbs up for the design Mr. STIHL

PROTYPE is the key word here guys.
Let's not waste time or energy speculating on this now. Just go with it...

881 CARBED

The Strato port divider looks pretty bad, the intake is uneven and rough looking. I hope it's a prototype because it looks like a Chinese cylinder honestly. Not trying to be a Debbie downer just stating what I see.[emoji8]

Sadly......I have some 661 jugs here that are dark in color like that jug. The "regular" 661 jug is a Gilardoni. It looks as though Stihl is casting some of their jugs in house now.

Ear, look at the manufacturer date on that,, not disputing the saw or cylinder. Just pointing out.. for others ...we know they write backwards ie 2016 is the yr

Boom! There she is!

Nice Stephan
I think we still need a max flow filter update

Good eyes man

Eagle eyes!

Just creepily following along but this sure makes me want to start saving pennies now because I know it’s going to take quite a few. I’m surprised it won’t be fuel injected

 

[Mastermind]

looks like 261 dark?

Yep.

 

[Wonkydonkey]

Can some explain this from one of the pic Steph posted... just asking and saying 1122 series saws ? 660 ?

 

[Nutball]

I thought 1122 was familiar, but don't pay attention to the series numbers much.

I do believe that last two numbers are 19, so date could be 16th of july 2019...... would make a lot more sense.....

Same jug. Another point of view. You can see 1124 (matching with MS 880/881) above 1122

Yes, my bad. You are correct in the date format. I just looked at the 211 I have and it is as you say.

Yes I see that now. I,m Happy to be corrected..

Edit; Not disputing really, just asking, after all the other pic don’t lie with the calipers showing 60mm

I think I need to get me coat.

1122 is not a STIHL specific number, but gives you information, which kind of aluminum alloy was used.
