Yep, I have the 25 and it's grunty, so the 35 should be great with a blade.

I run both the line head with 2.7mm line and the original blade at times, mostly in my 6' high bracken and weed farm which is overrun by jasmine vines for good measure down the back of the block no worries.

Wasn't that a great top 10 shoot out before?

Lot of good laps in there!

Tomorrow will be interesting..... Got plenty of Bundy laid in.

Was a busy track 2 weeks ago. Wish I could have unleashed the big block patrol tho!

Looking forward to the race tomorrow.

Anyone know if there is an Aussie source for sugihara bars? Figure the group buy looks good but freight will be ridiculous......

Nah no source at all mate. The guy on US eBay also will not send overseas.
Freight is costly but I can guarantee by the time you take freight and the exchange rate into account it will be well worth it and not much more expensive than buying a decent bar in Australia, that alone a lightweight bar. Even a laminated Stihl E Lightweight bar for a 200T in 14" will cost you around $75.
I'm getting a few of these bars sent in myself.

Yeah I too have a Honda whipper snipper. Not sure if its a 25 or 35. Either way goes great and very trouble free :)

I've had both, 25 is more than adequate, noticeably lighter than the 35, and powerful enough. Just keep the oil changes up to it. I think 40 hours - I change it weekly when they get heavy use.
