    Best 70cc saw

    Only bad thing i can say about the 441 is that the lower anti vibe bush that is under the front end of the saw is pants. When this comes out all the pressure goes on a plastic peg the bush locates on. If this snaps its either a bodge repair or a new tank/ back handle That said i love mine. Working he other day had the 660 in the van but just used the 441, better on vibes and a nice saw to use i'd buy another dont feel the need for the slightly larger 461

    Best 70cc saw

    I have a 441, belting saw. Think its ace
  13. Ive always gone from top handle to 50-70-91 cc Dont really see the point in a 60cc saw
  14. Yes spotted that picture and saved it. Was thinking along the lines of that 425.00 is a good chunk towards that conversion
  15. The main question being.... Does anyone know if they actually make much difference in terms of traction? Cheers
  16. Nope, messaged him then again but nowt to busy to chase folk
  17. Hi, Im after the opinion of other owners or people that have owned the vermeer 252's... Do the dual wheels help much with traction at all? I know they help it be more stable but im wondering about traction? Did some stumps the other day on some inclines and bankings and was hard work to get the grinder up to the stumps! Will the duals help with this or are they just a waste of 420.00? Not sure weather to get some duals or go for a tracked machine... Also worried with the duals on, on boggy ground it would still sink and make it worse for recovery and make more of a mess in gardens? Many thanks
  18. 200t are in the past now. Carbs messing about and not as good on vibes as the new ones. Live in the past and be scared of new technology or move forwards and get on! Sold all my 200t's on. 201tcm is a good saw with a few niggles... i have an older 201t yr 2012 that gave 4 years full service no bother apart from fuel tank breathers. Had the ignition and flywheel mod by dealer for free and was and is a good saw. Good luck with the nostalgia lol
  19. Not had that Dave but crappy air filtet cover breaking and them stupid fuel breathers leaking fuel. Its within warrenty so will ask for 5 breather filters because they are crap lol
  20. I have 5-6yrs no claims with them and my insurance went up this year by approx 20%! Due to aviva upping their premiums.
  21. Rubbish. I was told no security requirements for my new chipper couldnt believe it lol security is a big priority for me!
  22. Looking for a self employed person to work all groundsman roles. Must have minimum of cs 30-31 and a good work ethic. More local to Barnoldswick the better. Please send a pm on here Many thanks
  23. Kind of what im going to do at the yard soon Mick lol
