Cool.

I came back for more. My 'old' 201 got dropped from a tree, good on it. I've got two of the newer ones now and they seem much better.

Heck one husky didn't make me a convert. I've had no luck with the 540 either.

I am a Stihl guy!

I just want to push the guy into making the kits available. I'd gladly buy one. Then maybe I'd buy more newer 201's in the future. Who knows?

I'm just happy someone got back to me. I was starting to feel snubbed!

My reply: Hello, Thanks for getting back to me. Just so you know I communicate online with climbing arborists from all over the world. My personal experience of having one of the earliest model 200t's seeming gutless is not a isolated incident or because the saw isn't set up properly. If...

I'll give it a whirl. Even at that price. The saw is borderline useless to me as it is. I won't run it. The 540 sits on the bench still with a broken kill switch and 200's rule the truck. I'll go dig up my reply to him.

I got this reply this morning: Dear Sir, Thank you for your email and the support of our products. I have reviewed your note below and while I understand your frustration and point of view, there are a couple points I would like to add to the discussion. Generally when a MS201T is broken in...

I'm not on facebook though. It's not my thing.

Well. So far not even a reply from Stihl. Nothing.

I'll post in this thread what I hear back. If anything.

For sure it should be. Follow Jay's link, let Stihl know. Everyone should.

Thanks Jay. They got a piece of my mind!

Still no availability on this kit through my dealer in BC Canada. Stihl? Listen up, fix your damn mistake or atleast make it available to me to pay to fix it for you!

Stihl needs to get their poop in a group.

I would gladly do this. But even showing my dealer the pics in this thread and providing the part number. I can't even buy the kit! That's what pisses me off. Hell I've gotten on with it. I'm not even running it. I run 200s. I can't even give Stihl more money for this kit to fix their mistake...

Thanks for that offer. I'll be at my saw shop this weekend, taking my 540 in again. So I'm going to push the issue there first on this upgrade kit. To me part of my frustration is that I have to educate my dealer about this. Like pulling teeth there sometimes to get what I need.

So do echos what? I've had one echo tophandle. POS. Right now I'm running 200's again. Probably gonna have a few rebuilt. I agree that having to buy this upgrade kit is BS. On the same note if I could buy it I would, as the money is inconsequential in comparison to having a good, powerful...

Say what you will I run and own them all and so far I'd take a 201 over a 540. That's my real world experience. I can't get this upgrade kit at my local Stihl dealer. I'd like to know if any other Canadians are able to get this kit?
