    I like the 105cc china saws but I don't want to spend the $300 on them. http://www.aliexpress.com/item/100p...tchen-five-colors-eco-friendly/392212460.html

    Kinda still up in the air exactly where to break the classes but we were thinking a 40cc, 50cc, and 60cc class. Trouble is mostly with the 50cc machines, there are 52cc and 58cc machines. Do we make the 58 cc'ers run in the 60cc class with the 62cc machines? or do we pit them against the 52cc units? Then there is the same thing in the 40cc machines, there are 38, 41, and 45 cc units, do they all belong together? I'm leaning towards a 45cc and under class (the 40cc class), a 46-56cc class (we'll call it the 50cc class), and 56+ cc machines (the 60cc class).

    Thoughts guys?

    Its about $110. Those epackets I been getting get here in 8-14 days. Those maybe longer.

    As to those big fake stihls your getting into import duty and tariff territory or taxes?? I think I read on eBay up to $259 your good above that you owe taxes and duties.

    With $70 shipping, it's still $100.

    I want a bigger one now.. I will don't want ironpony to be in a class by himself. :)

    Thought I saw a 70cc machine?

    Oh and I will be picking up my 441C-M tomorrow or Wed. Called the dealer and they are putting a 25" on it and prepping it! :) You'd chit if you knew what I got it for MM!:emb: Gonna be throwing some chips this weekend! Also working in a deal on a Tach. Needed one for a long time.

    It would be better to leave the oiler inoperable and spray some ether on it after its warmed up - assuming the throttles are being held wide open by vise grips.

    This idea of buying a cheap saw has drawn my appeal after getting into a couple bids on some 038 stihls yesterday - they went for way to much.. yeah I'm that guy that will push your max auto bid:smoke:

    It's $48.40 for the 45cc model with free shipping. :)
