Hello guy´s! is there any rim sprocket system for the 090? or is there only the spur sprockets for it? i have seen rim sprockets for the 070 but not for the 090!! gb made 3/8 spur sprockets for the 090!! but is 3/8 really to recommend on a 090?

Thank´s..............
 
my GB catalog lists a .404 and a 1/2" spur, Herr catalog lists .404 and 1/2" spur.
PM me if you are interested if any of those.

Yes the 090 had a rim system but it is NLA from Stihl. They are still some floating around. I have to keep mine.

Well, i guess i have to stick to the spur sprockets then!! it works! but what about this? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=7750075915&rd=1&sspagename=STRK:MEWA:IT&rd=1





it say´s 3/8x7 for stihl 090!!!!!!??? anybody used one of those? will the 3/8 chain brake in a let´s say milling situation?

I have a rim on my 090. Was on it when I got it. I thought about going 3/8, (and retip the bar), but consiering the danger of chain breakage, I feel better with the .404.
You would get a slightly thinner kerf, but I doubt it would add up to another board out of a log. Could be wrong tho, maybe I'll do a thread.
