394xp price

[hyler89]

So here's the question. I have a chance to buy a good cosmetic strong running 394 for $200. I've been looking to get 395 was wondering if there's really much difference. Also is that a reasonable price to pay

I have never seen a 390+ saw that was a runner go below $300. If it runs, jump on it.

Run, don't walk to buy that saw for $200. I have one and I love it. It is unstoppable with a 34" bar. It never fails to put a grin on my face. I have never run a 395 but they aren't that much different. You can put a 395 jug and intake on a 394 case.

If I were you I'd steer clear of that saw, AND please send me the info needed to purchase that saw instead!

I'd buy a dozen 394's at that price knowing I'll never wear out the one I have. If you've not gotten the chance to operate a good 394/395 this would be the way to do it.

Buy it at that price and if you don't like it you'll be able to get your money back easily.

Who would sell a nice 394 for 200 bucks?????

Only real difference between 394 and 395 is the intake setup as stated previously. To change intakes you change cylinder styles. Other than that....nothing major.

No need to swap cylinders with a 395, the 394 has got more cajones. Husky renamed the 394 to 395 when they changed the cylinder porting and carb setup, they did it to comply with epa regs.
BTW, $200 is crazy cheap, its worth at least double that if not more.

I bought a running 395xp for $200 but it needed a lot of work! And it is far from anything to look at.

If you don't buy that saw asap.....l think we'll start calling you names. If its a runner and looks ok with a b/c just BUY IT! Why don't l eva find deals like this....Good luck! And if you don't like it or want to upgrade l'm sure it would'nt last a day in the AS trading post at double that price!

i see them come up for $100-$200 in running condition once in a while here. they are normally beat to living hell logging saws though.

 

[hyler89]

Thanks for all the info i figured I'd be a fool if I didn't jump on it. Gunna go see the guy today.

That's a great price for the saw, I just picked up a 394 this week for $350 and even that was a low price for what I got in my area. $200 is an absolute steal, do it!

 

[hyler89]

So I jumped on it! After filling the tank three pulls fired right up seamed to tack and idle just right. Compression is right around 160... Plastic is faded and she's quite dirty but noting som compressed air n a rag won't take care of. I know I know didn't happen unless there's pics to prove so after I clean her up ill post a couple.

You Suck! Good deal.

Awesome, enjoy the saw. I just picked up a 394 as well this week but I have yet to use it. I am looking forward to doing some milling with it soon though.
