My 2011 562xp has not had the hot start or bog issues at all. Most impressive stock saw out there! That said, I still prefer to run a ported 357xp most of the time.
No not the people. Only the numbers are insignificant by comparison.
I agree no wants to.... I can't afford to order a saw that i don't want to just compair it.You say this but apparently no one wants to show it off.
Have you ever ran one?I agree no wants to.... I can't afford to order a saw that i don't want to just compair it.
Well you may be slightly out of context. Because the Dolmar 6100 out classes the 562 in almost every way.
I can't not a single dealer in my area will carry them. They say they are too problematic to carry. So I did try but they said if they order one for me it is money up front and no returns and they would not perform any warranty work.Have you ever ran one?
Depends on how you compair and what is important. Me I find the better air filtration, better fuel economy and better powerband far out weigh the .1kg weight savings. I also find the inboard clutch is better. Easier to clean, easier chain swaps, easier to remove the bar if pinched.6100 is a good saw, however, I don't see it being out classing a 560-2260 in anyway. The bulk of a 6100 approaches my Husky 365xt without the power. 6100 does start easily.
I appreciate your brand loyalty but this phrase is laughable. We've seen countless firsthand opinions and youtube videos of the 562 handing the 6100 it's arse. As it should being a more refined, expensive saw.Well you may be slightly out of context. Because the Dolmar 6100 out classes the 562 in almost every way.
Mine is tuned just right, always.NO, I think they are tuned to lean to get by the EPA and not much you can do about it. Steve
I always respect your opinion, but "handing it's arse" is FAR away from the vids I have seen! More or less a second , with a brand new saw, faster is for me hardly handing anything out there.I appreciate your brand loyalty but this phrase is laughable.

Needing to report a dealer because he cannot do the job kind of reminds me of other strange things from the past. Any dealer can be unable to deliver the quality one expects. Further any dealer can have a bad day.Sure some of the earlier 562's had issues and that seems to have been more or less figured out. There are several threads on here pointing out what needs to be done. If a dealer cannot figure out that issue then you need to call Husqvarna to report that dealer and find a different dealer.
With that being said, I have been thrilled with my 562 as have the folks who bought 562's which caused me to buy mine. For a one saw plan this is tough offering to beat.
The videos I've seen are multiple seconds different or 20-30 percent faster in the same wood so I'd say that's sizeable. We (forum members) have this same discussion every time the 562 gets compared to the 6100. The 6100 is a good saw, the 562 is best of breed. And as you can see I do have a Dolmar in my stable and I'm completely satisfied with it.I always respect your opinion, but "handing it's arse" is FAR away from the vids I have seen!

And that you are thrilled with your 562 is great! But I have read in german threads that many pros are NOT buying the 550/560/562 line anymore! Why? Because at the end of the day the 545/555 gets just as much work done. Why? I have no idea and can only presume.
I see often mentioned that so many are "thrilled", etc. about the "power" with the 550/560/562 saws. To be honest, when viewing a lot of the videos presented on the net it has, in my eyes, a lot to do with the short "super rev" when pressing the "trigger". Usually when looking at the cuts, as soon as the saw is in the wood after the first inch or two, cutting speed is absolutely not different at all to the "convetional" saws. So where is the "magical power" AT/MT saws give us? I have no idea.
That the balance and "feel" has been very well defined is with out a question, but is that enough? Not for me.
