Stihl MS500i (stock) vs ported Solo 681, Dolmar 7900 and Husqvarna 390xp

The new fuel injected (first ever) MS500i has some impressive stats on paper, 6.8hp/5kw with 79.2cc by only 6.2kg/13.6lbs powerhead weight. A lightweight powerhouse! I wanted to see how the saw keeps up against some older but ported and modified contenders (i know its not that fair). At test against comparable stock saws will also follow.

90cc vs 80cc no fair play. The best saw ever made in 80cc is, was and will be Solo 681

I know you already said it's not quite fair, but the Stihl will probably come to life after a few more tanks of gas. I didn't realize how much of a difference this makes until I bought my first new saw. Great chain sharpening! Great video!

Any experience with the 85cc dolmar big bore kit? I've got a 6421 for sale used locally I'm thinking of picking up and doing the big bore top end swap, but haven't seen any times tests or anyone from a tuning shop really do anything on them.

I have a 681 at home and it's an amazing saw, I wouldn't trade it for a heavy Husqvarna 390 and I wouldn't exchange it for a 500i either, maybe after a long and difficult decision I would exchange it for a Stihl 661.

@bazen44 3 жыл бұрын

@@hi4429 The 661 is similarly heavy, but the performance is elsewhere. The Solo 681 does not lose power, but has much less vibration and weight. So for me 80cc Solo 681 or 90cc Stihl 661. Husqvarna 390 is great, but Stihl 661 or Solo 681 are better.

@ChrisHardwickanimaladventures 2 жыл бұрын

Interesting comparison... I'm thinking maybe the faster cutting saws may just weigh more? None of them really bogged down, it would be interesting to compare the weights of the saws with the speed of the cuts. You may have put the same downward pressure on the saws but a heavier saw may have increased it artificially.

Dechsi81 , What can you say about Makita/Dolmar 7900? I have this chainsaw ,but i'm dont professional cutter. I want know about quality of this saw. Does it have 6.3 horse powers / 6.3 kilogrammes ? Does the Stihl chain and Stihl bus the best selection for this Dolmar? Can you do the comparison stihl ms 462/ 362/661/dolmar 7900? Please,please ,please ... Doing videos about this saw more often)

Meh, 500i does nothing extra compared to what you have already tbh. Also, the air filter is shit compared to the twist lock HD2s used on the other newer models (like 462, 261, 361 etc.).
