Wish I still had one of the many 254's I owned in the past.

I've never had one.and haven't seen very many in the past few years.not even the newer models.ive never seen one like this with heated handles.

A first for me too. I waited for 4 years searching eBay to find a 262XPG then in about two weeks last year two of them popped up. Future projects of mine now - I need to get rid of some of the others.

My Rattler 254xpg is a very impressive saw, will give a ported 346 a run for it's money and that is saying something, I hope to build another 254 I have soon, one of the best kept secrets imo.

Got it done.new bearings and seals, cleaned the the OEM cylinder.new meteor piston and ring,new oem fuel line carb kit,new worm gear.runs and oils excellent set stock.i did no modifications to the muffler or cylinder.not sure if the heated handles work.i don't really rev it that high without cutting.book says they turn on at like 10,000 rpms.
