I see, and understand. The 441 does a good job, since they copied husky and all.
Kobby, get that 460 ported and it will hang with the other two.

If stihl would have put some stiff springs on a 461 along with some type of air injection and kept its basic design with the jug it has it would have been my favorite.
Sort of like a 661 version of the 461???

I'd rather have a 60cc saw that cuts like an 80cc saw.
Yeah I know.........I don't want much.
Steven........you should try a ported 441C next. You've have all the others.

The 7900/7910 is my pick. It has the best power to weight, simple design, smooth, good price, parts are reasonable.

In the videos the 460 was running about twice the time as the 461 . Both had a new rs chain but the 461 had a 25 " the 460 had a 20" . I just sent out a cylinder today to have it ported [emoji6]that makes sense I think a ported 441 ,460, and 461

No , more like a 441 , i dont mind tuning im good at it..the 661 filtration system could be better..i took the cover off after about 20 cuts and it was packin up .. hard to believe for a modern saw.

The 462cmr will make you happy my friend. Stay tuned, as there has been a lot of talk about it already..............

Put a DP muffler cover on a 440 and it sings. 441 has more stock power but more weight and bulk. I cannot say that I like my 441 better than my 044. The 044 wore me out with vibes though. Worse was the 460; that thing was a high vibration machine.

I agree 100%. And yes the 462 will be salty, it is a Stihl after all. I own a 261c and the 441cmr,2253/2260. But the majority of my saws that get used regularly are carb models. As much as I love the auto tune/ m-tronic stuff, I still am hearing a lot of static about it through the dealer net. I think Stihl has it pretty well figured out, but there has been some solenoid issues as of late, and husky is def.got an issue or two. I think a lot of the issue is from dealers who don't understand it, or want to service it. Sooner or later all 2 stroke OPE is gonna have it. I for one have no issue with carrying/ using a tuning screw driver.

Yah, I am sticking with carbs for now as well. 462 is going to be a while yet. The 461 engine with the exhaust scavenging, Mtronic, and spring loaded. Maybe even a laser (outside North America). AV requirements are getting tougher. The 461 was just a stop gap saw to tie things over. The 661 fiasco has slowed them down/pushed them back with new releases.

how much more bulk/ weight can the 441 have over the 440??? I think the odd shape of the 441 fools people to some extent.
