That's a great 1100!!!! 
I actually like the "cut down" clutch cover....I do that quite often on 288's when the rear of the cover gets broken.

That old 3 rivet Oregon bar is very appropriate on that 1100:msp_thumbup:

Last night I had a dream. It was about flagship saw's! I was counting them like sheep, and slept like a baby!

Parmeter, and I had to get a big pine down last night before dark. It split into two trees about 30 feet up it was about 80 feet, and 3 foot plus through. Cut a section of wire fence, and put it right between two post's perfect! Got it bucke'd into round's just before dark no daylight to spare it was a freebie. My very dear friend passed away, and we did it for his wife. Tried to pay us 3 times, and she broke down in tear's when we dindn't take the cash she was touched. You don't get many friend's like them, and what are friend's for pay me you kidding. Would have had a couple good pic's but John's step daughter was elected camera man, and she got tie'd up playing with the neighboor's kid. Well we got it down anyway.

thanks mate,,
I see an odd name here i seem to know, even old mac bob.
I can add a little to your thread as a few 2100s are still racing in australia, a couple with pipes and some without.
I tested a modified production class 2100 on the weekend for another racing mate, its just rebuilt using a 394 piston with 1 ring, mild porting and piston work plus a cutted original carby.
testing in spotted gum (hard wood) blocks, the saw hung on quite well as it was only basicly tuned. Another 2100 to re enter the racing ring for sure. I will ask him to send me a few pics of this saw so i can show them.

Good stuff Ausneil1. I have a 6 or so year old 660. I get into alot of big stuff, and used the 660 all the time, before getting the 2101. At first I thought it would be mostly a backup saw. Wrong I use it as much as the 660 love em both. It is really impressive to me that a saw that age is as good, or better than current model's similar in size.

Is the thread where somebody posted a pic of a trapezoid shaped K&N filter? Uh, thought I seen one, and now I cant find it!

Speaking of 288's, did any of you fellas ever here about Norm's buddy who traded a book to a guy for a 288 in return?...............
I got my 2100 all primed, and ready to go cut some big trees on the 17th of this month. Man this waiting is like standing in front of the microwave watching the burrito cook..............it seems to make time go slower.........
