Just looked on you tube and when he took the cover off it looked the same as a Husqvarna 372XP so inboard I would say .

i have one there in broad style i would go for a 395xp if you buying new there out orad but pisses all over the 661 in the cut, have to admit my 661 is nice as the vibs are less and its lighter but i wished i got a 395xp to be honest as it a little disappointing in the power wise but a overall improvement

of a 660

Thank you sir.

Stihl quotes more power , I thought the 661 a improvement on the 660

Would you say the 395 feels better to use than the stihl ?? Or just a faster saw ? Thanks

395 is " old school " No electronics and been around for a good many years . I love mine and would buy another if I had to .

This would be to go onto a logosol m8. I'm a husky guy with most other saws but having a bunch of bad times with a new 3120 is putting me off a little

I bought a 661 a few months back. It's an internal clutch like 440 etc.

Cuts faster than a 660 big bore and can beat an 880 in 30" cedar milling.

Quite impressed really.

Light, not too vibey and cuts great. Only issue found so far is the upgraded oiler will empty the oil tank before you run out of fuel.( if you push the pin in and crank it up).

I've not tried the 395, have used 056/066/660's.

I recently sold my 3120 as I just don't need it any more but on the odd occasion I did it never let me down . What probs did you have with yours .?
