Stihl lightbars
Has anyone been able to try out the stihl light bars yet? I know the weather hasnt helped much on the east coast but i did call my dealer today and they can get me a 28 inch in 0.50 for $143.00 . She said it would be about 1 to 2 weeks to get because thier main wharehouse doesnt have them in stock. If they did i could have it in a day or two. Most of the people that have them say it is not as flexiable as a oregon rw bar, but i am going to wait until i here more feedback on the stihl bar . thanks Happy newyear everyone !

LOL, I have two of those on back order as well. Mdavlee's .063 came right in, but I don't know what the deal is with the .050's, I had mine ordered about 1 week before him and still nothing. They should go great on the modded 441's.

Thanks guys. I thought the bars were still on back order because no one has talked about it . I got a price for a oregon red. weight bar in 28 0.50 for $149.00 Brad , I was wondering if the oregon red. weight bars that you have are too flexiable when bucking big wood say around 24" and up?
The oregons are a little floppy when making falling cuts with the 32". I didn't think the 28" was too bad compared to the 32". The stihl 28" light bar feels just like a regular bar except the weight. If the paint was off of it I don't think anyone would notice it wasn't the regular ES bar.

I just called my dealer. . . Stihl 28" .050's (light weight) are available now, and I can have them in my hands by Wednesday.
If any of you want, I can have them get the bars here, and I could ship them out the same day, or that Thursday (1-12-11).
I didn't ask price, just if they were available now. Y'all would have to pay a little for shipping from 59901, but I don't want nothing for doing it.
You'd just have to PayPal me the money so I could pay the dealer, and pay to ship them.
Not sure if they're still on backorder for y'all, so I figured I'd offer.

I've got 5-6 tanks so far on mine. I really like it. I might get another 28" or maybe a 32". I've run the 28" on the 2171. It looks a little wrong but feels great.
My eyes are burning!!
