Sweet saw and nice price. I surely do hate to see a nice Lite starter on the wrong saw. I would love to trade present or future owner for a correct starter cover. This Lite cover is nicer than the one that came with my bought new saw... I guess that I must have used it some...

If I end up with it (hoping someone buys it before I can) I'm sure we can work something out. I'm about an hour south of Atlanta.
Cool. Thanks. I'm an hour west of Atlanta.

Wow... 11 am ET and this saw seems to still be available. This is becoming very difficult for me. I'm going to be in and out the rest of he day. If it's still here when I get home tonight I may not have any resistance left. 
The stickers (regular 288 and 288 lite) for the starter cover are still available new from Husqvarna and there's no inherent difference in the starter itself so I wouldn't see the starter as being an issue.

I'd take a good pro grade top handle saw in Stihl, Husky, or Echo in on trade.
This saw can be hand delivered to Randy for him to shake his magic wand at
They're a good runner stock though...I ran 288s for ten years...

Sounds like you're gonna need to pull the case halves apart and install the new case gasket and update case bolts. I've done three so far.

That's the plan for the spring, unless I either commandeer the basement for winter chainsaw activities or decide to send it somewhere in TN.

The TN option is a good one. A modded 562 runs like no other saw I've ever had.

Saw has a new home. Thanks.

Whew... just got home and told the wife there might be some cash outlay. As much as I wanted this saw it's probably best I let it slip by.
Congrats to whoever got it... looks like a good one.

Oh and Mark.........................you KNOW you want that 288XP.
I should be getting a commission from you guys that are selling 288's. Probably assisted in the sale of three of four of 'em over the last couple months...

Really? My local dealer says NLA. They are however no longer a Husqy dealer. The online sources that I can search also state NLA. I would love one for the NOS starter cover I have.
Congrats on the sale komatsuvarna. The new owner will be very happy when they get into wood with that saw..
