If they just filled in the small bit of plastic they removed then it would all be good.

Looks like it runs on a new chain.

Which I understand means your existing 91VXL or Stihl Picco Micro chainsaw chain won't fit and you have to buy the new Stihl chain from a Stihl dealer until Oregon catch up.

So its heavier and produces less power and slighty more powerful noise, but vibrates less. Doesn't seem like much progress to me

But it meets the coming EU emissions legislations, so they will be able to sell it.

 

Its not Stihls fault.

produces less power

I just hope that this emmisions thing doesnt prove as performence limiting as it does on our fuso
