Husqvarna 564XP

Nope. Running the stock 7 tooth. Cutting a lot of dried hardwood logs so prefer more torque. I actually put on an 18" bar late today My two 20" bars need dressing as they started cutting crooked today.

 

Cousin had a 500 it does not sip anything..
I got 462 because I could steal his 500 and 462 uses visibly less fuel. IIRC He says he prefers 661. Since I had 462 got lil brother the 400. I think I should have kept 400

As for Husky I got 576xp from Eric VW and 445 rancher

 

Most ported saws are...gotta pay to play!

 

Yea, I posted about this saw back in July, heard it was coming in October, now it's coming in March....I would like to get one whenever it gets here.

 

Hey buZZsaw BRAD , give this a watch. Should automatically start at 10:00 or so.

 

Guess I'm getting both and try it myself.

 

I've had 3 auto tunes saws, sold two of them keeping the one with heated handles and replaced with old school 3xx XP series. The old school start on the 1st pull every single time unlike hot starts with auto tunes. I can't imagine this would be any better.

 

I think a 400.1 will fit in my system well.
whenever the heck they get over here,,

 

Don’t wait get the MS 400 right now and get her broken in. You won’t regret it and besides you’re missing out on all of the fun while you wait.I have the 25” Stihl light bar on mine and it’s awesome. My older son has a 500i that I can play with if the need arises

 

This^^^^

 

Had my hands on a 500I the other day with a 32” bar. What a beast! I do have 4 other chainsaws to play with until the 400.1 or the 564Xp get here,,,

 

What size logs were you bucking? It is an addicting saw.

 

negative

my neighbor has an Alaskan Mill he was doing a black cherry and let my do a couple passes

that thing is a beast and he had some hot shot chain on it

what a beast

 

Realize the price doesn't include shipping. Figured the price would be north of $1500

Husqvarna 564 XP® Fuel Injected Chainsaw | Safford Equipment Company

Very tempting, considering it's cheaper than a 572XP and runs like a 70CC saw.

 

I clicked on the link and added a saw to my cart and it said estimated back in stock was April!

 

Yeah, after you click the bar / chain combo you want it tells you that it won't be available until April.

 

Well with the way you like to procrastinate in cutting wood, that should work well with your schedule....and enable it!

 

I’ve bought from Safford a couple time. Always good service.

 

I’m running ahead of schedule this year!!

 

Where are they out of? I didn't notice a location.
