The successor to the proven MS 460 scores next to the exemplary low power to weight ratio in particular with his new drive concept:

The 4.4 kW strong STIHL 2-MIX engine with 1-in-4-channel technology awaits you with features such as reduced fuel consumption and low emissions.

According to the specs the power is down from the 460. 4.4kw vs 4.5kw:msp_ohmy:

the 460 has only ever been 4.4kw in oz and we get the dual port cover as standard

the 046 was 4.5 KW

 

[Stihl-Pioneer]

The US site had 4.5 kw listed, most likely a misprint. I would think they would have to be the same power or have more to keep happy customers.

yep agreed i would like to know if this a version with electric carburettor means a c-m model and no air routing is a mistake this is one saw that NEEDS air management like the 441

I don't think the 461 will be a CM unfourtantly as much as I want it to be lol. Here in the states we have some people that do not want to adapt to new technology, like the carb being electronically controlled, spring anti-vibration, & Strato technology. My bet is that Stihl will use the 461 for the guy that believes that he can beat the computer controlled carb, and does not like the idea of using springs to dampen vibration. For those that want a 70cc class saw, there will be 2 types of people in the future, the ones who like the new technology, and the ones that don't 441 CM Vs. 461.

yep i've been waiting looks like a ported 441C-MR for me

the 046 was 4.5 KW

The original 046 was listed at only 4.1 kW/5.6 hp in fact - and I have never seen the 4.5 number on late ones (046 Magnum), only 4.4.

Yes, :agree2:

Last I heard the 461 will not be available here for a while, 2013 at the earliest. The 461 looks more like an update than a totally new concept.

 

[Trx250r180]

by the # 461 ,you would think it has similar port shapes to a 361 ,the decomp valve is off to side like one ,not on top like a 460

No it's a strato saw like the 441, so it will be completely different.
