I forgot to check the bar mount on the 7200 and 8200. Any idea off hand?

Standard D009 mount.

My Efco saws come out of the US so I get bars I will probably never use. 20" K095 and 24" D009. I swap them out for 15" K095 and 16" D009.

Just got a low hour MT 7200. This one will get just a muffler mod.  Will get more inventive with the 980.

Got to run the 7200 against a 365. 20" bars ripping 24" pine. 365 wins hands down.

365 special closed port  or the 365 open port v/s the 7200? I have yet to run a open port 365 that people say is down on power.

I know I was really impressed with the 2x 365 SP's I have had. Nothing in the 60-65cc range except for my poulan 415 65cc could cut with them. Wish I would have timed the cuts in the ash now.

Closed port 365. I have had both types of 365. Powerband seem higher up in the 365 special. Open port 365 is no dog however. IMO the 365 is the best all purpose saw out there.

Checked the compression on the 7200 stock. 170 lbs.

That really surprises me Kevin.

I haven't found either the 365 Husky or the 2165 Jonsered to be close to my stock 6400 Dolmar.
I've tried every one I've found that is still anywhere near stock.
I've got to say the J-red sounds more impressive!LOL

My newer 7900 was bought new as a 6400 but I never ran it before converting to 7900. I wish that I had.

Mike next gtg we are at, please bring a stock 6400 6401 with you OK.

I remember racing against them back in 07 or 08 at Medina gas chainsaw racing, 10x10 3 cuts. 4 6400 took 1-4 and my 3750 60cc with somewhat scored but rebuilt and cleaned up topend got 5th.
