Well, of course it is better to have the bar and chain as close to the centre of gravity as possible - which means an outboard clutch/inboard sprocket.

 

And it's nearer the line of the operators head in the event of kickback; rather lose my nose than my ear

They are wide for their size even with the non easy start recoil, and the handling suffers from it.

 

Inboard clutches are a bad idea, regarding the handling of saws.

 

its a good job there is an inboard clutch as it would run left hand side heavy but seeing the bar is on the outside all is good :thumbup:

 

and its easier to change the sprocket rims when these power houses rip the rims to shreds:lol::lol:

Have you emailed them telling them this? I'm sure they'd be very grateful, and probably feel daft for not realising!

So out of interest, why do husky use an inboard on the 362xp, 365, 372xp, 576xp, 385xp and 390xp? All of which are more chuck-able than the 394/5xp and arguably the 357xp (I prefer the feel of the 362 over the 357). No other manufacturers use an outboard nowadays.
