Thanks. Just messaged him.
Not sure if they're available or not from the dealer. A member mentioned in another post recently that he can get them. Been mulling over the idea myself.

Probably. I use my short barrel Stihl scrench on wrap handles like my 660.Is there any problem, tightening the left bar nut? Looks like a typical T-scrench will hit the wrap handle. I doubt that the top of the T could be longer than 2-1/2". I've run into this with other wrap handles.
My last wrap handle kit came with the smaller scrench that fits under the wrAp handle.Is there any problem, tightening the left bar nut? Looks like a typical T-scrench will hit the wrap handle. I doubt that the top of the T could be longer than 2-1/2". I've run into this with other wrap handles.
Man, that looks slick! I would love one for mine, but I can't justify the price for what I do with it. Has anyone found any aftermarket kits, or at least the handle itself?
Ok. I priced one out and it comes to $200 CND Dollars. Taxes in. The Exchange rate right now sucks for me.Dealers should be able to get them. I have one new kit 1135 007 1007 just got last week. I can get them if you what to pay the shipping. I would check your dealers first.
I have a critique of the wrap handlebar on the 361. I bought my kit on the bay for 150. It came with the clutch cover, handlebar, short scrench, and the other tidbits new in Stihl packaging. My own opinion is that the full wrap kit turns a handy 60cc ground saw into a somewhat unwieldy and cumbersome one. Unless you are felling trees with it, which I am not, I really don't see the need and I see it as more of a hindrance than a help.
As was mentioned earlier, it can get in the way while limbing and my experience has shown me that it nearly always gets in the way while limbing. I used my 361 with a 20" bar. I played around with a 25" but found that to also make the saw unbalanced and cumbersome. Any saw with a wrap probably needs a bar longer than 20" anyway. Around here 20" is the bare minimum for light felling work but nearly all use a 70cc class saw with a 24/25". Professional loggers that is. The harvester will take care of most of them though.
I am a fan of the west coast clutch cover on saws though. I wish they all came that way. Of course, that cover works well with a wrap handlebar since you would be eating even more saw chips if you did not have it and were using the saw inverted to utilize the wrap portion of the handlebar. I like the way the cover puts the chips more or less straight down into a smaller pile rather than spewing them all over the place like the standard ones.
Do you have pictures please?I have come up with everything except the spikes and chain catch. If interested 120.00 plus shipping. It's all in very good shape.
167ish plus the HST here... full wrap, clutch cover chain catcher the whole salami ..but that is full retail your local dealer might be able to do a bit better.Ok. I priced one out and it comes to $200 CND Dollars. Taxes in. The Exchange rate right now sucks for me.
