  1. 12 but the demo saw I had when mine was being fixed was 13 and that's was poo too !!
  2. possibly, we haven't tried. Personally I would rather own a reliable slogged than a unreliable sprinter. Speed of cut isn't everything
  3. haha yh I reckon chap. Old saying make hay while the sun shines Seems to be TRUE atm. Very busy with this lovely weather atm
  4. well im single atm so making the most of it by working. Lol
  5. well the chaps on here may disagree but Gus and I had a race in some beech and my stihl won. Maybe its because its 3/8 chain full chiz not .325 semi However I would like a test with same chain and new chains both our chains were hand harpened. However its not slow. A lot quieter than 560xp and 362 has had more stick and seems to be taking it better Hope this helps mate.
  6. I feel your anger. Hence why I bought a 362. Its done more work already than 560xp and seems to be spot on. Reliability wise aswell. I really liked it for the 5 mins each day it actually worked but far to unreliable for me, well my one was .
  7. thanks chap. Its nice when someone compliments your work.
  8. haha. He int popped out to se how overloaded the trucks were each time
  9. im not complaining, Just asking what others do.
  10. so as title suggests just wondering what hours other lads/ladies put in to make there business work. just got in now, 8.30 pm, me and a pal have been logging / bringing timber home sine 8am then onto a quote at 7.30pm. thats 12.5hours, killer. thers no 9-5 when your self employed , well not for me anyway . heres a few pics of todays work, enjoy, im off for tea, cold shower and cold beer . [/ATTACH][/ATTACH] oh and a (RATE MY HINGE PIC ). [/ATTACH] JOSH.
  11. Mine had, New air filter New air filter housing New plug New pull start Program update Then.... It still didn't work so had all new electric parts. And a program reset... Still wouldn't run sweet so got refund and got a 362. So far its done more work and hasn't missed a beat. Not what you want to hear when you have just bought a 560. Yes it was awesome when running but to unreliable for me sorry. Going back twice on two months on a so called pro £600 saw in my mind is not acceptable.it shud work hard day in day out for years. Its a shame as I really did want to love that saw. Josh.
  12. far far better. Starts hot / cold, ticks over, cuts well revvs well now its run in, Pleased so far . Hasn't stalled once ,. Much simplier and in my eyes much easier to maintain and easier to work on.
  13. Well mine had hot start kit and it didn't fix it mate
  14. I wouldt say its tearing like the 560 however when me and gus did a cutting comp between them my 362 won, maybe I can sharpen better than him or I was on 3/8 chain and him .325 but the stihl did cut quicker, It was beech 13 ish " log
  15. Still no complaints with 362yet... I reckon its done more work in two weeks than my old 560xp did in two months . Mainly due to the fact it runs when I want it to. happy so far..
  16. I can believe its good, just pricey
  17. I also like my 362, far more reliable than my old 560xp Guttsy, smooth and reliable, Can't complain..
  18. mixed reviews I guess, if my offer is accepted I will use proper oils designed for bikes
  19. ok putoline or silkolene seem the best
  20. haha yeh, im looking at enduros, MX is fairly pricey, lets just hope he accepts my offer ...
  21. you better get the spammers out bud,. ... may see you there
  22. yh I can't see a prob with it, its designed for twostrokes revving flat out,
  23. cheers bud, I can't see a problem? If its good enough for chainsaw screaming then surly its good enough for MX bike? Its hardly cheap oil @£40 5l
