Thinking of selling my 064

[TreeLife]

And that's all fine and dandy if they like their 064s. After shattering my hands on multiple occasions antivibe is the most important feature on the saw to me. I also get sick or messing with tuning the saws all the time because of my ocd, and varying altitudes here. Different strokes for different folks.

All the treeservice and loggers around here hadnt made the leap to electronics . They wont touch them. Still usin 036, 440, 460, 066, 660, husky 372, 266, 268, 575. For the most part dealers here dont like them and dont promote them but really dont have a choice now. I know of a total 2 people in my area that have 661s but they may catch on eventually

This this this this.and 361s i know a guy in tree service bought a brand new 441c hated it said it had no torque like an 044 460 he said id rather run my old personal 044 10 mm saw shoulda never bought it he said

Its that way here too. The difference in these guys here on OPE is that they use saws daily and they actually have a passion and r knowledgeable for saws and the performance. The professionals I deal with daily know absolutely nothing about saws other than they r hardcore rough workers and kill saws!! . I hadnt heard a one of these ole southern boys mention vibes or how much a saw weighs or how smooth one is!! They r definetely not PSP like me but they sure bring that broke crap to get fixed and polished up!!

I really dont see many 064s around here but most professionals use a 066 or 660 . They would probably love a 661 if they would try it though. The minute u mention electronics they all respond the same, " Hell no , I dont have time for that crap!" Maybe times will catchup down this way but folks arent on the train here yet

I like the fuel effiencey of new saws...vibes don't bother me THAT bad...but I guess I should be aware of it so my hands actually work when I get old.

The guy you know obviously has his head up his ass and doesn't know jack *s-word..a well running 441c thats broke in is a badass saw.

Matt this is just a bunch of opinions from all of us and what we prefer from different applications. The 064 is alil hard to get parts for and more of a PSP here on OPE anyway but are awesome performers if ported correctly. All around the electronic saws are awesome performers and very smooth cutting. I have both and like both and its nice to not touch a carb when u get ready to cut.

 

[Cracker Boy]

Id personaly deal with the vibes over weight everyonez saying go 7910 but its heavier then 064 and im giving up 5 cc i cant justify it.and its a 1 ring piston and the filtratuon dont impress me like it does on 6100

Single ring piston saws live just as long.
