Found this rear handle German Made Stihl 201C that was like new and fell in love. Sent it off to Brad Snelling to have the muffler mod, remove rev limiter, advance timing, retune and open the plastic cover at the exhaust. Ran it today and what a sweet little saw. Ran it first with the Stihl Light 16" bar and 3/8 Picco PS yellow chain from Sawtroll's favorite ebay seller.
Shot video on 9" dried Elm with the 16" bar. Also have the 14" Stihl light bar and ran it with the 14" bar as it was getting too late to film. I think the 14" bar really goes to town and will shoot some film of the 14" tomorrow. Feels Like the 14" bar pulls stronger. What a great little saw, I had it buried in 17" dried elm with the 16" bar and it was great for what it is.
The 201C basically eats my 192tc alive. I ran the 192tc and had to stop and make sure the chain was sharp as it cut so slowly compared to the 201C. Will put a loop of PS on the 192tC and shoot comparison video with the 201c.
I love this little saw
