Well the operator proved the MS462C has hyper throttle response. If this saw is factory stock Stihl had a winner here. Sounds better then what I've seen so far of the 572XP.

Take another look at that 462 in the video guys.
A member in another forum said the German title says "first cut."
That 462 at the start of the video looks like it was about to make its 1st cut as there is not a scuff or one bit of sawdust on it.
Imagine how she'll perform after broke in!

Brad shared pics of a 462 owner from Germany with saw taken apart for pics.  13.20lbs pho dry

Brad = These pics come to us by way of StephK87 from Germany. He was kind enough to void his warranty and send us these pics. Not only that, he will be porting this saw ASAP and gutting the stratos, Snellerized Style. I can't wait to see how this thing runs! It looks like a cross between a MS261CII and a MS661C.

Stephen's initial comments are that it's as light as a MS362, as strong as a MS461 but with better acceleration, and much better handling than a MS441.

Here is Brad's pics http://photo.blsnelling.com/Chainsaws/Jobs/MS462C/

Thanks for sharing Brad's buddies pics Kevin. Internal pics I never had!
Lot's of cool trick parts. How about those thin stainless dogs and the new spark plug. No full circle crank but weight has to be saved somewhere.
It's the same weight as a 562XP but still almost a lb heavier then the Ms362.
Definitely my next 70cc saw.

He was probably meaning the OE 362 I call the pig. ;) 

Not the NE Type 2
