husky 254 decomp ?

[Martyn Amos]

Isn't that alot for a saw that is 10 years old? There was a spanking 440 on there a few weeks ago for about £350 BIN.

 

I've just got a 262xp off ebay for £160.

 

not bad!

i had a 346xp for £150,bit of a dog but runs like a dream and still going strong,after 2 yrs:001_rolleyes:

Er, have you actually looked at the condition of the saw? It may be ten years old but it still has the original chain on it and when I used it for the first time you could smell the factory paint burning off the exhaust, so I got a not even run in 044 for £400!

 

I am such an idiot.

a barely broken in 044 is worth every penny of £400... the shiny 440 on the bay recently had a new taiwanese top end on it...

 

 

a 262xp for £160 is an absolute steal tho:thumbup1:

I never called you an idiot mate... All i am saying is that i thought it was a bit expensive? But if you say it was basically new then maybe not? The 440 i saw on ebay hadn't had a new top end either.

Yeah I know mate, I was having a little fun, it's all good. I paid £200 for a used 440 last year which I thought was pretty cool until it seized after one tank of fuel, new piston and rings, cylinder polish, modded exhaust and now it runs like a doped out Ben Johnson.

It was optional. Dealers and distributors ordered the saws with or without decomp.
