They would be just like their wheelers and bikes, so under powered they would make a Stihl look like a AA nitro funny car.....

I would rather have a Norton...

I'd rather have a Triton-or better yet,a Manx.:rock:

If you had a Honda saw you'd have a fourstroke because Honda is a fourstroke company.
Your new saw would be heavy,run hot,and be no better than anything else.If it was anything like their bikes,it's perceived quality would be due to past reputation-not current reality.:smile2:

I agree the mystique is fading somewhat.

Honda has a long history of producing two-strokes. Their technology is amazing.
 
I sold Honda boat motors back in the 80s' when the largest size was 15 HP. Very high quality!!!

Husqvarna makes a bad ass motor cycle. :msp_smile:

no better than anything else? I don't know man, I'm pretty thrilled with the build quality and design of our Pilot.
 
Honda produces only fourstrokes.That is their stated business model.They made some good 2t's in the past(and many roaches too)but no more.


My point was that they did, and they still could, under certain EPA provisions, that will never happen.

They still have the technology, but it's not being used as of right now.

A pilot is a good machine.Honda generally builds a good product but there are definitely exceptions-and they aren't always as good as many people think.Auto wise,Toyota generally builds a more reliable vehicle.

If they did build a chainsaw,it would be built in China,as many of their manufacturing facilities are now based there.

Wasn't it Toyota that had the problem with the disappearing brakes?
 
Nope,it was a whole group of people trying to jump on a bandwagon and get something for nothing.They were also targeted by the US gov't who, interestingly,owned GM at the time.Eventually,all those claims were proven to be false,but you don't see that on the news.
Honda has far more recalls than Toyota-but certainly nothing like GM.If I was buying a new Asian vehicle,my top three,in order,would be:
Toyota
Hyundai
Honda

Just based on what I see at work day in and day out for the past 25 years.
 
Honda makes the most trouble free and reliable generator ever built. They are the most popular out here in Wyoming. I have owned two different Honda outboards, very quiet, very dependable. They do make excellent products. As far as them producing a chainsaw, I would buy two, one to s--t on and one to cover it up with:hmm3grin2orange: I'll stick to my huskies.
