Hey guys. I replaced the 16" massive bow on my 390 with a 12" baby bow from ebay. It wa sold as a Stihl bow, but it was a Husqvarna/Jonsred/Poulan . It handles it much better. The only drawback is that it can only handle something 12" wide in one pass or 24" from each side, however I would ordinarily use a straight bar in the big stuff anyway so this is perfect. I'll try and get some pics tomorrow. I did have to have 12.1mm slots milled in it and drill new oil holes, but other than that it fits like a glove. In case anyone else sets up a Husky 12" bow it takes 78DL of 3/8 chain, don't know what it would be in .325"
