Tsumura light bars

[RiverRat2]

Ok, Dave was just here, dropped off two shiny new Tsumura light bars. He is limited as to where he can sell them geographically, I am not. If you need these bars call me guys. I will buy them, tack on $100.00 and sell them to you. Just kidding. Let me know if you want them though.

I sent you a PM requesting a couple,,, Never head back from ya!!!

Well, they look really bad imo, and the real question is how light they really are, compared to the light Oregon, Stihl and Husky bars?

I would NEVER recommend anything but the best. You should know that after all these years. Are they expensive? Certainly. So is a Rolex, Snap-on tools, Mazak lathes, these bars are for pro-users who want the best. Period.

Phone me Rick, would be good to chat anyways.

finally installed mine.

 

[mdavlee]

I might finally get mine mounted up today myself. Got about 7 more hours till I get home. Been a long 2 days so far.

Here it is on the 576. I might fool with it enough to get it to work on the 655. The adjuster hole needed opening up a little for the husky and even more for the poulan.

Looks great Mike. I bet she felt great too.

I have 4 new bars in my shop, Husq 33" and 37" in 0.058". Stihl 32" and 36" in 0.063". If anyone is interested let me know.

 

[dave k]

This arrived from Canada on Tuesday and have put it on my 390 XP for now. I dont have scales but you can feel the difference in weight compared to a Stihl 36" and the Tsu is a full 36" cut so is 4" longer than the Stihl 36" Very well made and can see why thay have such a following.

 

[mdavlee]

Looks real nice Dave. I bet it makes the forearms not as tired at the end of a cutting session.

 

[young]

yall see this? :eek2::eek2: i am very envious.

I WANT ONE OR TEN.

Light & Tough in smaller sizes

OK, maybe I missed it somewhere in the other threads, but I don't understand the geographic limitations on selling these things. Likewise, I still don't understand why there's only one distributor for the Sugi Hara bars. How is territory meted out in a small but international market like this?

 

[dave k]

Thanks for posting that Young, anyone ever used their chain or files ? I used mine today just for the sake of it and handles really well, the rails are so well machined along with a nose that seems that it will last it's worth the extra cash.

I'm with ya Nathan! I tried to get the contact page to translate, but couldn't. I was going to send them an email asking why we can't get their stuff here.

You'd think Bailey's or Madsens would be all over these things -- even if they're a little pricey -- from what I hear, you're getting what you pay for.

 

[madhatte]

That's just the thing --I WOULD BUY THEM IF I COULD. Hey, Marketing Department, I'm talking to you.

 

[young]

the issue we have (US) is that Tilton equipment does not carry them for whatever reason. :msp_mad::msp_mad: someone had mention that they had them before but had issue with these light bars. the one iam using is tough as nails and as good as any bar out there. already thinking about getting another one.
