Never seen a 341 before!
What
WOW a 16" bar, that's tiny man, don't know if i could go that small and would i really notice that much different's in torque gains?
PS do you ride a quad and/or dirt bike?
Is there a place here i could post up my quad, dirt bike, sled, boat and two trucks? oke:
West coast saws usually have a wrap handle.
The 24" isnt going to hurt your saw. You'll just want to turn your oiler up all the way if you havent already.
Yeah there is a Readers rides page on the main site column. I have ridden Trikes, Quads and dirt bikes but I have a 700 kawasaki vtwin Quad at the moment with a dyna cdi, modded twin pipes, modded snorkel. I machined the clutches so that the belt rides higher and I get about 78mph out of her running a black spring on the secondary. I have a 4x4 so I am limited as to what I can do. I can smoke a racequad when I can get traction until he hits last gear and then after a second or two he will pass me unless he has mods and than he will get the holeshot and I will be left at the starting line but I will stay with him until about 65mph. If I built a stronger engine I could beat most anything but I don't need that much power and on a 4x4 platform it is kind of pointless. My next purchase will be a Yamaha Rhino. I tried one out and they are worth the money a good play around machine that can take four people or a very good work machine that can haul 1500 lbs with ease. I would like a 4 pic post on the readers rides forum just to check out your banshee that thing is very nice and I can see a lot of thought went into the design as well as some performance mods.
OK... i gotcha ya, this handle has a switch for heat in the winter months and also the carb is heated in the winter with a lil switch for that too.
For real should i crank up the oiler all the way or just some?
How much oil will that use man...about a tank of oil for a tank of gas or what not a big deal at all just need to know?
Will cranking it up all the way be sufficient enough?
Im running a full chain not a skip...big deal or not?
Depends if you are repeatedly burying the bar or not. I have a 30SC full comp chain for my 25" and have buried it, just don't push too hard.
Yeah, I just realized the OP is out there in BC so he should be just fine in the softwoods with that bar. I guess it was the lack of the wrap handle that threw me off.
I have a 20 and a 25 for my 361, I have been using the 25 now for the last 6 months with no problems. In fact, I'm starting to like the balance much better than the 20. The 25 is also easier on the back.
Your saw is rated at 4.2 HP which is enough to run a 24" bar out here.
Do a search on here for skip chain and you will find all the info you could ever want.
Ok thanx.
So if i wanted to buy a full wrap handle could my dealer get one for me or would online be better?
