Every since I've been coming to this forum I've wanted to go to a GTG. I Think there's enough members in the mid-western NY. north western PA & eastern Ohio area to have a GTG Just getting a free weekend for everyone would be The hard part.

I've never run one, but I've been told that a Shindaiwa saw is a very well built & reliable saw, but no speed demon & not the highest rated power to weight ratio.

I have a husky 246 and a shindaiwa 488. The 246 is faster however the 488 is still a great saw.

yes!
it has a very nice cyl... to compare to the older 346xp worksaw. i dont think it would beat a new one unless you built them into race saws.
Possible, but doubtful. my first 346 and 488 were ported by Dennis Greffard.....the 488 lags way behind.
i want a BP-1!!

They are both a tad over 50cc by now, but the old 346xp/Jonsered 2147 probably is a good under 50cc candidate, specially when modded.......
Yup, I've had two, woods modded. The 5100S is faster...and faster stock by quite a bit.
Won't be long, and I'll have a 346NE to compare them to....ported of course.

I wonder if there are some of the BP-1's out there? Were there a lot of them made? I never heard of them until this thread, I'd like to find one, it looks like they have potentional because I read they have a rev limiter of some type & if it fails they would rev out sight.
