Now now 2K the OPE industry would be a few decades behind without Kawi. 
EVERY major mower manufacturer has Kawi on board.

Well Joat its like this. When Viet Nam was going full swing Walter Cronkite finally made it known he had his full of Viet Nam. LBJ told his top advisors oh my goodness we have lost Walter. Even so the war went on.
So Joat if team Stihl has lost ya so be it, you'll be in replaced in the morning, or as ole Master Tom told Chicken George in Roots, he said Chicken George I got 40 more just like ya, free market, can't beat it,
Tommie,
Joat recommends Stihl to all his friends and fellow countrymen if they get the type of dealership support and service due. As for me and my family, we are movin' on.
Blessings to all,
Joat

Brian,
I'm not the first to step off the Stihl wagon and I highly doubt I'll be the last.
And in that day, the first shall be last and the last shall be first,

Joat, save the Redmax for the small saw (psssst pick up a 3800 while you still can) trust me -->This<-- is what you want on yer back come fall.
Now lest you start to think I'm deal'n in Kawasaki you should know I have one of their handheld blowers I wouldn't send to ya if ya paid me to just cause I like ya and think your a nice guy. I'm pretty sure I just got one with a bad carb but "innocent until proven guilty" doesn’t really apply to OPE now does it.
All of the other Kawi stuff has been top shelf and I wouldn't trade it for all the "Dream Sickles" in the world (in their class).... with that said.... you haven't experienced tall grass string trimmer bliss until you've put a bike handled FS250 through it's paces, so Stihl still has it's place in the ole line-up.
The FS410 clearing saw is a force to be reckoned with and nobody nowhere can take that away from it.
Erick,
Well, thanks to a thirty-one day "wait", I do have some tall grass.

Kawa makes some good stuff no doubt. I'm not sure if our JD790's engine is all JD but I know our old 650 is. Our push mower is a briggs and the race mower is a briggs.
For OPE, I trust only Stihl but as stated, it's a free market.THALL10326

I'm not overloading my azz, I know a 27cc 2 stroker isn't gonna mess with a 31cc four stroker, its doesn't have near the torque nor rpms. That FS100 tops out at 10,400 rpms, tant no way that 2 stroker gonna mess with it in deep grass or any kind of grass...

Oh but I have, in that very field in the pic above and the 100 left with it's tail between it's legs..... that’s why I can say such things without fear.
Truth is they are pretty close, but the Kawi was on top and the Stihl left with some boobys tattooed on it's back.

LOL, I like boobies. I just don't see that tiny kawa running with this 100RX, but if you ran 'em both then I guess I'll keep my 100.
