Performance wise how much of a difference does this mod make? Is it noticeable?

Hi,
.
I wouldn't buy a 261 or a 362 but would buy a 260 or a 361. However, Id like to think the 261 clutch bearing issue is sorted but consider it should be given a routine greasing.
So, that said, my choice would be a 461 running a 20" bar.

Needle bearing issue defo not sorted!!! Still disintegrating after 2 mins use from new. However if you change from a rim sprocket to a spur they Las a little bit longer with a good greasing

I've had a 261 from knew and so has many of my colleagues. Problems problems problems. In the month I've had mine the needle bearing has disintegrated, had to replace rim sprocket for a spur, chain brake has stiffened up and replaced and has now currently stiffened up again. The chip is poor! My machine cuts out alot!!! And takes some to get going again. Out of over a dozen saws not one has survived over two weeks.!!! My choice would be to tab it out to that husky dealer and get a 560. Stear clear of the 261. Imo that is
