They are nice bars and I don't know about the small mount sizes, but I think you could find the Jonsered labled Total bars much easier and cheaper. Those should be on the dealers shelves where your saw came from. I think the Total branded Tsunarma's are every bit of the bar that the Sugi's are.
I'm not trying to be a smartazz or anything, but why such a bar on that saw. I think the standard Oregon model would outlast your saw. Kinda like these kids puttin $3000 dollar stereo's in $1000 cars.

If you assume my saw is stock (its not) and worth say, $300...Your example would be saying a Sugihara is $900? Bad example in my opinion.... I have a 20 inch Total Super Bar on another 2149 but it is front heavy. I just happened upon the 20 cheap and bought it. (I have several other SuperBars I would sell)
I have used the Oregon ProLite. It does not hold up that well in my cutting conditions. I like stiffer bar. The Total in 16 would be OK...In 18 I would prefer lighter for what I do.
Good bars are far cheaper than saws and make a big difference.
The Jonsered is an excellent saw for my not so clean hardwood conditions..mostly Hackberry, Pecan, some Hickory and Oak. It has outlasted the neighbors faster Dolmar.
Btw. I limb with Dolmar PS401 and Redmax GZ4500.

The Husky 42 is a great little saw when paired up with a narrow kerf 16" bar and chain.

sugi vs tsumura/total
The Sugihara will be lighter in that size[.058g/.325p], especially the 16" length vs the Tsumura/Total. The .050g/.325p is even lighter. I have both and weighed them. A laminated bar or narrow kerf _might_ be lighter still, but that Sugi is surprisingly light. J

I was actually referring to a 42" sugihara guide bar lol.

In Husky small mount, 16" and 18" Sugi will be heavier than Oregon Pro-Lite, but lighter than Power Match and Total.
Sugi makes good bars, but I like the weight and feel of the Pro Lite better on a 346xp. Doesn't matter much to me though, as I have both.

Yeh, the 20 Total I don't really like front heavy, but I prefer shorter anyway. I have 15 Oregon on my slightly modded Redmax GZ4500. I like that and 14 on the PS401 modded. I cut a lot of firewood from some hairy fencerows and longer bar just gets tangled more. Or maybe its just me.....

The longest bar listed on the Sugihara website for Huskies is a 38" bar, and unless you've twinned a 42, it's not quite enough saw for such a bar

I was joking around with Ted.
In the "old days", Sugi made a line of professional grade bars (1976 to around 1989) that were on par with the current Cannon bars in terms of quality. The 42" was the longest available out of that line. I'm pretty sure that's what Ted has.

LOL...Thanks... but they were all totally fresh built together and had yet to be in wood when those pics were taken!! Long story... but if you have any interest use the site search engine "49SP and 70E Build From Scratch"...LOL then you'll see why they are so clean!!! The two 49sp in that both carry 18" .325..the one with the Sugi just plain balances and handles so much better than it's counterpart with a regular laminated Husky 18" bar it isn't even funny....
