Jonsered 2165/2171 Vs 2166/2172

[phil21502]

Any info on these comparisons? My local dealer said the 2165/2171 are discontinued and and the 2166/2172 took over. These are about a pound heavier than the 2165/2171 according to jonsereds website. The 2166 with 18" bar is $740 and the 2172 with 24" bar is $860. Also said he had a demo 2166 I could try out but I'll have to wait for the hurricane to pass. Lol.

I have a 2165 and a 365xt, which is the husky version of the 2166. The 365xt stock is a little heavier, a little more powerful, and has more compression than the 2165. The 2166 can be turned into a 2172 by removing the restrictors in the transfer covers.
