What is the best chainsaw bar? I need to grab a few new ones and want to give a couple different ones a try. Best one for your top handle and best 25-36” bar for the 661? Also I’d be interested in hearing any pros/cons to each. I’ve been interested in the sugi hara bars, has anyone tried them?
 
I like the sugi’s. They are good bars. Also like the Tsumura bars. Lighter than a Sugi and not as floppy as an Oregon lightweight. I haven’t tried them on a top handle, can’t help you there.

I’ve been running sthil lightweights and they work pretty good but they aren’t nearly as light as the sugi’s Apparently. Might give them a try!

Top Handle?

Sugi or Stihl.

661-
Stihl ES & Sugi for regular weight. Tsumara for reduced weight, but honestly, the Oregons are cheaper & they last ok.

My preference is the tsumura, especially on longer bars they're a bit lighter than the sugis. Sugi make a great product too just a bit more coin
 
I have 18" (3/8", .050) Tsumura bars on 2 separate Husqvarna saws and I haven't been impressed. Not that they are bad, but I haven't seen anything special about them. Seem to be performing and wearing at the same rate as the Husqvarna stock bars or Oregon Power Match I've used in the past.

Hmmmm maybe I’ll just save my money and grab a couple oregon’s... the Tsumura bars are quite pricey
