Spur v Rim for 261

Forgot to mention:

 

When I had your saw apart, the first thing I checked for was wear on the needle bearing and any odd wear on the clutch drum. It seemed fine to me. If the needle bearing is still in good nick and you don't see any odd wear inside the drum, I wouldn't worry much. Especially on that saw. The way it cuts now, any issues with that set up would have certainly shown themselves by now. I like to use lithium or synthetic grease on the bearing cages, btw. We have synthetic we use on the tractor here, and it seems to work fine on my bearings on both my ported saws, as well as my nose sprockets. I lube the bearings once a week, and do sprocket noses before every outing.
