Stihl MS 500i Review 

The best thing about those WCS dogs is - being able to push them into a timber to hold the saw when not in use- in stead of setting it on the ground. They work very well too!!

I LOVE MY 500i, it’s ported bark box, custom pipe 32bar & I burn 70-1 98 Octane jungle Juice. SHE SCREAMS👍☝️

really enjoyed hearing your take on this saw and nice you form your own opinion without listening to others....thumbs up !!

I like your style. Honest and straightforward. I love my 500i. Keep up the good videos

Very well spoken and put together. Good review, thanks. Still can’t decide though lol.

Interesting video. Thanks for the info on the 500i. It's tempting for sure.

I went with the bark box and the west coast 3 point dogs…..love both products. It’s a great saw period, with or without the mods. Did the same with my MS 362 also, worth it there also IMHO. I also went with the 28” light bar after running the 25” light bar on the MS 500i first. Glad I switched and then put the 25” light bar on the MS 362. Glad I did that also. You will enjoy the new saw, especially after you have run 6-8 tanks through it, it will come alive then. Enjoy 🪵⛓🪚👍👏 Rick

Yes ; I purchased a 500 and love it. You did a perfect presentation, Thank you.

Good video! And I’ve watched a bunch of these reviews on the 500i. I didn’t realize they made a TS500i for that much longer. I’m not worried about the reliability of it so much and I think it’s only a matter of time before I end up buying one. I’d probably run it stock for a while but am really intrigued by the bark box idea. Would love to see some scientific info on how well it helps reduce heat. 👍🏼

Have mine now for a couple of weeks this thing is a legit Tree Killer. Love the looks like a fast sports car.

Very good review.Thank you

Great video!!! I watched at least 50 of them and yours is in the top three being great!! How about one for the 661????

Very well done..

I definitely like the idea of instant throttle, but question to me is if it would withstand hard impacts.... such as bounce off a utv or atv. Because this does happen.

Yes pls I love to know for sure that it runs cooler with the Barkbox

Have you ever ran an old Pro Mac 650 or 610 I love this saw over my Newer Stihl 500

Thank you

I like the no BS review

By any chance did you consider the 661? If so, why did you choose the 500i? What size bar are you using? Thank you.

Get an egan straight shot... it definitely helped get heat out of my 440

I have a 661 cause when my uncle and I went to buy saws he liked how light the 500 was and well I’m no copy cat so I went bigger. Go big or go home lol

Thanks for the review. Comparing with your 362 is kind of silly. The 362 has always had a lack of power and not a very impressive saw. That's why the 400 is so well received. The 362 will be a has been for sure. Also comparing a 59cc saw with a 79cc saw is just silly. I understand your wow factor and your point of reference.

Short Answer “Yes” 😊😀😇

Wrong...261 cm is a pro saw...the smallest pro considering saw in Europe , regarding Stihl is ms 211. You see we don't have the need for 24" bars and shit🤣 You can cut pretty much everything in Europe with 20" bar . Btw good video👍

When will it be available in Malaysia?

good very good
