I think the 441 has quite a following Niko. Those blanket statements could be misconstrued.....folks might think up don't like Stihl.

Randy, how does the ported 562 compare to the 262's you have ported?

As much as randy has been running my saw that's what im afraid its gonna look like when I get it LMFAO

I believe the 560/562 has more potential for improvement than the 262, as that one was pretty hot-rodded to at the outset....:msp_smile:

Nice job again Randy :msp_thumbsup: That saw is smokin fast !!!
It actually looks like closer to a 40% gain. The way I saw it , an 8 second cut was reduced to a 5 second cut . Brilliant !!!

I like modding the 262. I know a lot of guys say they are hard to find good gains in them but I've found plenty.

The 562 is only on it's second tank. I figure it's still gonna wake on up. This saw modds really well IMHO. I would bet the 562 would take a 262 it the same size wood and pull further ahead as the size increased. I ran a tank of fuel through it today with a 24" bar completely buried to try and seat the ring. It pulls the 24" as well as the 18". I'm impressed with this saw.

Any advise on breaking in a stock 562? Ive seen posts about going easy on it with pine or a soft wood. Or just take it out and run it like I would with any saw?

I hate to give advice.

I would follow the instructions in the manual to the letter. Then if there is an issue the dealer should stand behind it.

Right on, I'll do that thanks. Sorry to poison your ported 562 thread with my stocker question.
Edit: it's one of those "call for discount" saws
