Somebody mentioned to me this might be a updated 441 and not a 461 update.  Anyone hear anything?

Regional SIHL rep's lips were tightly sealed when I asked him about them yesterday. . . .

(but he did not deny anything either!)

I hope husky delivers on time. The 372 autotune replacement still isn't out.

Notice the new clutch covers

261 - new cylinder
- new, thinner sidecover/chaincover
- better spikes
- new materials like aluminium screws
- 300 gramm lighter

362 http://www.stihl.de/STIHL-Produkte/Motors%C3%A4gen/S%C3%A4gen-f%C3%BCr-die-Forstwirtschaft/22318-1582/MS-362-C-M-mit-Rapid-Duro-3.aspx

more copy paste = most weight reduce is by mounting a other plastic handle. The version with heating handle will just be 100g lighter.

The new Stihl catalog says: Stihl MS 261 4,1 HP and 4,9kg - Stihl MS 362 4,8 HP and 5,6kg. Specs are for the normal version without VW, Q, R and so on .
