I don't need another saw, but I'm getting one of those just for the hell of it.

If the stock saw with the modified muffler is slower than the stock saw, how fast is the ported saw with stock muffler and carburetor?

I haven't had it back out for regular work since the porting.

Brad, have you ran any of those 261's against any other saws??? I mean like a MS361, MS440, 372... How would it fair against them??? Just out of curiosity...

It was faster than Nik's ported MS361 and on the heals of Andre's ported 372XP. That was in perhaps 16" Basswood.

SO it's hanging with ported 372's and beating ported 361's?

It's a bad mutha shut yo mouth!

I just want one more and more every day. After the new year I'm gonna start my journey to a new ported 261. Brad I hope you don't get too busy. I'll be buggin you in a few months.

I have a brand new 20" B&C for the 346. I really need to make that comparison. I think the 261 will show it's real colors.

I think the 261 will show it's real colors.

And the 346 lovers will also.

The longer bar actually helps, anytime the tip of the bar does any cutting it slows you down.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, the strato saws have a lot potential, and the 261 is proof of that. How long will a 50cc that likely puts out 5.5hp or better last? who knows, but as of now what's not to like.
