How expensive is a new clutch cover? Can anyone tell what he is talking about with the handle repair? How about the price?

 

[tlandrum]

Front handle screws on bottom are stripped out, he has some home made
straps and extra screws.....It's been patched up so to say.

Looks to be rode hard and put to bed wet. JMHO

Front handle has been "customized" where it attaches to the tank at the bottom. Price seems a tad high to me, but the important parts seem to be all there.

TT Beat me to it...

Too much money for a saw in that condition.

I agree, if I found this saw on C.L. or a P.S. I would offer $20 for the bar and chain and have them throw in the saw for free.

 

[Jmaffei]

Thanks guys, I will definitely stay away.

 

[Jmaffei]

My thoughts too, but looks can be decieving.

 

[komatsuvarna]

The 460 looks much better!!

 

[homelitejim]

Now there is the difference between night and day. Nice clean saw about 55% of new price, good ole 460 holds resale value plus great saw for any wood. Might be able to find one for cheaper but not by much.

 

[tlandrum]

i sold one in that shape last week for 455 on ebay but thats much better than the 7900

For an extra $100, you can get a brand new 6401 w/BB kit. No brainer!

 

[bigredd]

You could have had this great looking Jonsered 2171 cheaper. Rebuilt saws don't fetch a lot of $$$ on ebay. What's this guy thinking.

I'd rather buy that 7900 in that condition than a 460 in any condition

 

[mdavlee]

What kind of saw you looking for Jmaffei? I might know where some used ones are about 90 miles from you depending on what you want.

If the guy is a dolmar dealer, why didn't he fix it right instead of putting it up for sale in that mess?

Too many dollars, even if it was nice.

I really don't see him being a Dolmar dealer unless you need know nothing to be one.With a 28" bar and an 8 pin sprocket that would make it slower
