       Stihl 261 Gen 3

       Gen 3 coming out in 261. Anyone compared to Gen 2? Least big
       improvement IMO of Gen 2 over Gen 1.
       The third generation of the STIHL MS 261 C-M gasoline chainsaw
       will be available at the beginning of 2020.
       The saw offers 20 percent more cutting capacity at a reduced
       weight. STIHL achieved this by shaving weight from the cylinder
       and slimming down the sprocket cover and bumper spikes.
       The 261 received a comprehensive makeover with an optimized
       engine as well as a new cutting attachment.
       According to STIHL the saw has an extra 0.1 kW engine
       performance making it the best power to weight ratio in its
       displacement class.
       Third generation Stihl MS 261 C-M available in Q1 of 2020
       Outerwears part # 20-1114 prefilter    pre-filter is 3" in
       diameter and 1.5" tall
