key points from above.

At first you will think that it is built by Dolmar. That is not the case. This saw is built by Solo. Solo does sell the large Dolmar 9010, they call it the 694 but the 681 and its smaller sisters 675, 665 are Solo built.

From what I understand is that Dolmar did not design all of the 7900. Solo designed a lot of the parts for that saw. They were to be sold together in joint venture like the large Dolmar 9010.

Dolmar took all of the credit for the 7900 and Solo got the shaft.

Solo took it one step farther and made the same basic saw with a larger engine and a few improvements.

That is actually the door to the shop not my home. Yes, I did not keep even one for myself. Unless something changes they are all already sold.  Randy Evens wants one, Adam Artzer wants 2 and the other six went to guys on FHC. They are all new with warranty but no bars. To my knowledge they were the only ones left in the country. Even Solo in VA does not have any nor can they get any. I suspect Adam Artzer wants them for the stroked crank but don't know.

Yeah probably one into a 4 cube racer (even tho its a tiny bit over) and the other either I'll port and make it into a work saw or send it to Adam Clarke for a 7900 top end racer...

I thank you again for making one of these available to me.  ;D

Lots of good info here on these saws.  :)
