I think its pretty much the same as a Husqvarna 365. Slower revving than an XP saw but last a good while . 20" ish bar max ?

[carlos]

thanks just wondering as a friend is thinking of selling one and i thought could be a good larger saw( than my 346xp).

As Stubby says - same internals as the 365 but different colour, recoil cover and top.

 

Slower revving but decent saw for ringing up.

[Cut4fun]

Depends on if it is a open port or closed port one on the revving. Both were made.

 

The closed port cylinder 365 ones you would have a hard time telling the difference in them and a 70.7cc 372. Quad port and all at same rpm settings.

I had an old Jonny 2094, it was a very good reliable saw for its age. If that was anything to go by I'd have another in a flash, for the right money of course. Tbh if it's a good runner, have it.

I have one it runs an 18" bar it's a good solid saw has an old school feel about it that I like, it's not out often any more but I think I will dust it off and give it a spin next week i may also fire up my 266 for a right nostalgic day

I know of 1 that sat Nader bench for close to 20 years, my dad put some fuel in it, couple of pulls and it's ow his daily saw.

They always felt wobbilly and had a square grip, like Robert said, old feel about it.

[carlos]

thanks for replys, was kinda hopeing you would say its a crap saw so i wouldnt have to try and buy it!

do you think they would run any more than a 20" bar??

thanks carl

i have used one for years for logging, it's a quality bit of kit, it's on it's second bar and chain since i got it secondhand, and i'm just about to give it a major service, and it should do years more work yet, certainly nothing major is broken or worn out, theres no faults with it i can find.
