562xp re-released!

[SawTroll]

My local husky dealers have the 555's on the shelves.

The 562XP was in a recall

Yes, but no such thing with the 560xp in Europe! :msp_biggrin:

Tracking number says saw should be here monday! I might have to break out the spotlights and go cut wood after work in the dark LOL!!

Yeah, Stihl is about to get owned. I was feeling sorry for them until I went to buy some parts for an 028 rebuild and found out the price! They make some awesome saws but damn are they an arrogant company.

Seriously though, it's always a good thing when either Stihl or Husqvarna out-engineer the other. Take air filtration, for a while Husqvarna made Stihl's air filtration look like a joke, now the new Stihls are superior to Husqvarnas. The 562XP will light a fire under Stihl's arse to build an even better 60cc saw.

yep i want a ms261 m troic and a ms362 m troic with a decent air fillter system like the 261

My ship date was moved up to the 23 of December (take that for what its worth). I see a side by side 555,357, 562 video in the future. Heck may even get a 372 in the mix.........Dangit, I had gotten my blood pressure down for a month now

Today I asked the closest Husky shop when they were getting 562's in, he said"with the spring shipment" and added that he would be happy to order one for me..... I told him that I am at least a decade away from owning a 2012 saw uttahere2: . He still has some 235's and 240's sitting on the shelf so it does not seem he keeps up with the latest and greatest

My dealer has the full line and the new 555. Said the 562xp's will be in soon.

That sounds good Don.

And the 555 is even closer. :msp_wink:

 

[mdavlee]

I want to know when the full wrap 562s will be in. That will be the only reason to get a 562 over the 555 I've already got.

I would like to know the weight of the 562xp dry dry dry
Any glimpse of the oiler/clutch area would be cool too. Very cool

I agree. Love to see the dry weight and also the fully fueled/oiled weight with bar. Please, of course. :biggrin:

If you want pics of the bore, the best I would do for now is pics with a bore cam stuck in the sparkplug hole. I'll probably mod this saw after I run it stock for a while and I'll give interior pics then.

If I get it in time to run over to the post office and have it weighed, I will. I plan on dissassembling the saw and taking pics tonight. I'm not gonna pull the cylinder yet though. Pictures of the clutch and oiler is not a problem.
