The MS261 is to the 271/291, and MS362 to the 311/391 the MS241 will be to the MS231/251.

The 241 will be the Pro saw with the 231 and 251 are modular motored saw

The 241 isn't a 261 with a smaller displacement like the 024 and 026.

It's based on an all new platform, it's a true pro saw cylinder bolted to a metal crankcase.

Here the 200/201 has the 3005 bar mount.

I'm right there with ya. Get what YOU want. If anyone complains ask them how much they have wrapped up in their guns, boat, motorcycle or other stuff. $1000 starts lookin pretty cheap.

My cousin gives me flak all the time about spending money on classic saws, then shows me a Euro sniper rifle that he paid $8,000.00 for.

Platforms????

I am really looking forward to some of the new saws Stihl is bringing to the table... the 543XP vs. the MS241 may make quite the match up.

Does this have an adjustable oiler?

Does this have an adjustable oiler?

they said it's a true pro saw so i would guess so, but i don't know for sure

id like to buy one just to have it but i dont think i will with the economy like it is i think id buy the 251 for 330 dollars instead if i want a little saw

I got to put a little time on the saw today, I'm liking it more and more. I decided to take a break and cut some cookies and something happened between the 19th and 20th cookie and the saw acted like it gained one HP. It was like a light switch it just decided to run better??? I did the one minute idle with the lever at the bottom like the 441cm guys are doing and I couldn't tell a difference.

I just posted on their FB page.

Brad: it will be interesting to see if they respond. They just deleted any comments about the 241 last time.

Update on saw:

I have been working on the MM and will have pics tomorrow. I had enough room for a dual port and that's it, definitely a lot smaller muffler than the 362. I didn't split the muffler this time and was much easier. I used a mini air saw to cut the baffles out through the 1/2" exhaust hole.

I ordered the rim sprocket kit with extra rims in both sizes. I think it will be interesting to see how it compares to the 200t in cutting speed. I've read a lot of posts regarding 3/8lp vs .325 chain and the only conclusion from reading all those posts is that I need try it first hand to make a judgement.

I'll get pics up ASAP.

Yeah, I couldn't find any posts about the 241cm on their fb page. I find it strange how they are so again this particular model - it is a stihl product after all...

Will Buy One

When this comes to the states I will buy one, maybe two.

they responded to my two comments within a couple hours. they said when they hear a release date they will pass it along. however when i then asked if that was confirmation that the 241 was on it's way they they reiterated their original statement that they will let us know when they know. but they were nice about it.

and i just left another comment, we'll see what they say this time. also i think Scooterbum posted a comment as well.
