Do you need a standard brake handle or one for a full wrap?

The saw has a full wrap . I was unaware that there was a difference actually but checking the parts diagram , 5034172-01 with cover 5034152-01. Thanks for educating me .
Those are pretty tough to find, with the one for the full wrap being the toughest. Hopefully someone here will be able to help you. They are typically rather expensive as well. They do show up on eBay occasionally.
Do you usually just bend a coat hanger to make one

I’m sure there are boxes of them somewhere in the PNW. They were taken off the same time the air filter covers were.
I bet you're right.
I'm watching a video right now and the guy just whipped out a new 372 wrap, no big deal right, then I saw it's an oe xpw wrap

Took me a couple years to find my OE 372W. Another hard to find one around here.
Mines an XT conversion with all the proper plastics fasteners as well as the large dogs, oe wrap, and the wide cover. Nice runner with the 51.4.

I don't know about boxes but these saws still exist out here . just cant find a chain brake . rare and hard to find . kinda like monstrous douglas fir and spruce . I will keep looking .
I wouldn't doubt what Brads saying at all, he's found plenty of unicorns that everyone says can't be found as have I. Sure if you keep looking you'll find yours as well.
Here's one.
I have this style as well as an OEM one. Don’t really want to run the OEM W.
I normally run the ported xt with a wrap, the xpw is the large factory cylinder but stock, I try to keep it a bit nicer too.
I understand, it took me a long time to find a functioning brake at all for my 2101, I ended up finding all NOS parts and built one over a 2-3 year span. Since then, I’ve found a few more, but the brake handles for the full wrap handlebar are way more common in your area than they are in mine. I know back in that era, many fallers removed filter covers, brake handles, and brake bands before they ever put the first drop of fuel in a new saw. I’m sure the vast majority of them were tossed, but there has to be more out there.
Thanks.
It had the gullet attachment too, but I can't find any literature on it and there is only two guys I know of who have them.
As you were saying certain things like this are pretty rare especially out here.
I’ll fine one of them one day, I missed one on CL by an hour about a year ago.
I got that simington square grinder from south bend earlier this yr, I may use it some day, but I have another already set up I use for now.
Ahh, the grinder from Howard, he’s a good guy. I remember when he got that, he was all fired up about it. He never quite got the hang of it.
