The reason i sold the last one was,i used it for two years,didnt like the soft AV,it was my first stratto didnt like the way it took so long to get into the rev range compared to 440,460s and then a mate offered very good money for it so i sold it to him.I love my 460 but from what i have seen and been told a ported 441 M Tronic has a lot going for it including heaps of torque which is king over here.The way i see it is for a work saw its got a lot going for it,keeping the standard w/o revs,more useable torque over a larger rev range,fuel economy ever after porting,good filter system,no choke easy cold starting,dont even have to tune it .What more can you wont.
The only things i would do to it is add large twin bumpper spikes,roller chain catcher,stiffer AV and a 20'' GB Ti bar.

those with cost well over $50 in retail, might as well as get the wrap model for $50 more and sell the parts you dont want.
or just forget the 441 and get one of these :hmm3grin2orange::hmm3grin2orange::hmm3grin2orange:

This was my old 441 and the new 460 you can see why i still have the 460.

well looks like you should get another 460 but ported this time.

A stock 460 uses enough fuel,a ported one would be really bad, it would cut fast but you would have to fill up every 5 mins.:msp_rolleyes:

90% sure there will be a 10 inch lucas mill at the GTG!
Haven't been on the forum for a while been too damn busy, but can't wait to see a few guys and their saws. I have plenty of wood to cut even if there isn't any coupes open which I will find out about this week! Hoping to go and check out our campground this weekend and will post a google map reference for it if it is all good.

Ok just checked google maps and it doesn't have enough detail for what we need so I will find another way even if I post a copy of a fire map.

Ok to make things a bit more interesting at work we sell skid steers so I am trying to hijack our demo machine for moving logs and such at the event! Might be an opportunity for a few guys to have a look at one as well, and assess whether they could use one or not. Will also be a bloke representing timberking bandsaws as well.
