I knew the 500i were fuel injected but I did not realise it had OBD plug in capability as shown here and the self tuning is next level . I'm impressed with the saw and doubly impressed with Rip Saw and what they're doing , hats off guys , I wish you all success .
I purchased a full wrap 500i from Ripsaw solely on the recommendation of BBR! Not because of anything else but his message to humanity but #2 his experience and honesty with powersaws. Seeing Eric and the crew working personally on every saw they sell just gets me more excited to get mine when it gets delivered. I just feel really good about this purchase from this company. I believe in BBRS message and Ripsaws dedication.
It's genuine believer endorsement, BBR wouldn't have it any other way. I wish I was local and could buy the same saw with that pipe. I got a 500i with the Egan straight shot and their later air kit, and it is a ear drum popper if no muffs, great saw. I wondered about you Buckin when I saw you run yours in the video without over ear muffs, you must have had in ear plugs ?
@BuckinBillyRaySmith I'm glad I get to see you cut trees and buck firewood. Watching you has inspired me to try to do the things I love to do. But others won't let me do what I wanna do. I bought a 372xp and 394xp and I put long bars on both. And I don't even get to use them. Dreams are getting to be garbage billy ray. Just dreams. You look at all the things you can do. Then you realize you can't do any of them because you have no money to do it or support from others
Hi been following you for a long time. I bought a g660 holzfforma its 92 cc using on Alaskan chain saw mill. 2 years now no problems. Iam sure this will get alot negative comments oh well. Using 32 in bar. Only 400 bucks what can i say but love it.
The next saw I buy will be from ripsaw. My 500I is on its 3rd wood season and I love it. unfortunately, it's not from ripsaw but is a great saw. I found ripsaw because of BBR. BBR keep it up Brother I absolutely love your message. Everyone is fighting a battle that we have no idea about whatever it may be, so I agree with you be kind to everyone you meet. Let's make the world just a little better. You're a good man.
Ive got my new 500i in line with Ripsaw to get ported. I’m SO glad to hear your little note of encouragement at the end that it’s worth the wait. Of course I don’t want to wait 6 months to use my new saw, but I’m gonna have a heck of a power saw when I get it back. I’m super excited!
I found my guy. He's 45 minutes away from me, he's a stihl guy and I drive passed 2 stihl dealers and 2 Husky dealers on the way but he's THE guy. We talked a lot and I ended up with a mean 462. If you're a faller and you want the best of the best, get the 500i. Im not a full time faller, so i settled with the 462 and its an animal, stock. more than I need maybe. What I would do to have guys like Ripsaw down here in Tassie to turn it into a fire breather.
It's great rip saw is so busy. But the wait 16 to 20 weeks is so long. That's almost a 1/2 a year. I hope they figure out something so they can make the process be faster. I just can't see waiting that long for a saw . So now I do have saws from them. But that was when they were a lot smaller. And I got the saw within 2 weeks. But I'm happy they're doing good. They have beautiful, amazing saws that's the truth.
I guess they need to make sure businesses keep going at the current busy pace. Last thing you'd want to do is hire a new person to speed things up and suddenly orders dry out a bit. You've got to take a bit of a plunge when expanding a business but you need to make sure the pool is deep enough before jumping in.
Hey buckin I’ve been running saws every day for 22 years and I run both husky and stilh and johnsereds and I love them all none are better than the other it’s just whatever I want to run that day there all awesome
@@Whateva67 now jonsereds are owned by H. Many common parts and designs. In my mind they're one. But I could be wrong. Devil's always in the details. Everyone I've seen says the best for jonsered. Not one complaint.
I really appreciate that a true old school saw man can embrace new technology. It took me a while to get used to my Husky with an electronic carb, but now it's my go to!
I do this to every 500i that comes through my shop. It is essential to recalibrate if you make any major changes to it. Learned that the hard way. ie. brand new top end toasted on first start up. Had to eat that one for the customer. 😮
100% agree about finding the right dealer. I didn't choose my saw. I went to 5 different saw shops in the area I lived in (within an hour or so drive) and talked to them. Picked brains for more information than I can repeat. I ended up with the 461 with no mtronic or any of those extra special electronics. It wasn't the saw nor the dealer, but the mechanic that I chose to work with. The husqvarna dealer in the same town was only contented about selling me a saw. I knew nothing about dolmar but the only shop in the area that carried them were a bit pushy and very brand specific even though they carried stihl. They just kept pushing for domar. And the other two shops just didn't have much of a selection and were more of just a repair shop with a handful of saws. I wish I could find a place here like the one I ended up dealing with there.
@joeysweet9045 Being in a logging area, conversing with many of the Sierra Pacific higher-ups and Red Emerson himself. I looked at what they were using. Never saw nor heard of anyone running dolmar there. Mostly stihls, but I was definitely a husqvarna man at that time. I run both, though, and would never say either one was or is a bad choice. I do prefer my stihls, but I feel husqvarna makes a beefier (for lack of a better word) saw. Stihl has power to weight but feels more delicate, and husqvarna runs excellent in the heavy duty brush. How I feel about them anyway.
Buckin' Billy Ray, you are a awesome guy, and I love to watch you work, but I hope to never (ever) have a saw that gets plugged in to a computer. This is where Im drawing the line...
Wow 😮 that’s really interesting to know that you can check the computer on the saw to make it work how it should work. here in Ireland 🇮🇪 they only have the capability to check the nuts and bolts of the machine other than sending the machine back to sthil for a full physical test and diagnostic test
They aren’t getting tuned, you cannot change set parameters like dwell time in the injector or coil, target AFR, hold times or offsets. Basically the computer is for diagnostic purposes and to put it in reset mode. They are cool regardless but if they could be tuned more power could be had. Even if you could do something as simple as raise peak rev limiter.
Iam a retired arborist & I’ve always only cut with STIHL. I have a MONSTER 881,661 & a 500i all have bark boxes & Max-Flo air Filters. GREAT saws😊👍👍☝️BE SAFE & BE KIND EVERYONE ❣️✌️✌️✌️
The 661 is a total dog until you port it. That saw and the 880/881 absolutely transform, picking up over a full horsepower. I absolutely love my 661, but I will say that the 395XP husky has it beat for stumping. The 661 is a lot lighter but you’ll never make the torque that the 395 Husky can generate.
I have a 461 that I love, id love to get a 462 in my mittens. See ya saturday buckin, cant wait. No freakin way. I was praying youd bring a wood bullet. This is the only chance ill get yoy put my mitts on one and im excited. Please tell me I can thrash that beauty around a little. I have never really split with a splitting axe, I use a maul mostly but man do I ever wanna try out a wood bullet. Make me a believer in the splitting axes buckin!
I just received mine seems to be a really good build. But I have noticed there is some people that have really strong opinions about this company most are positive some just seem to be really upset by the thought of the ripsaw company as a hole . I don’t really get it. I’m really enjoying my new saw!
People that bought rip saw 500i’s are sending them to other builders to find out why they are so slow compared to bone stock saws. So that’s really cool considering what these cost from these guys.
Not true. The saw Egan posted wasn’t from rip saw. Only a fool would believe one saw porter talking poorly about another. Says more about Egan as a person than it does rip saw. Mitchell’s backyard logging compared a ripsaw 500 to Aaron lynches and they were the exact same.
How much for the damaged saw. I don't mind it being that way. I have an 046 that was ran over when a truck wrecked into dad's house. I will be at Bunyan on Saturday

It tells you everything, every time you pull the rope, how long it idles, etc.

I want one. I want a ripsaw. Those things are beasts. Love love love the sound of that 500i in a big tree.
I love everything orange. KTM included! Welcome to PA Buckin! See you Saturday.
I love my 500i from them guys. Hitting the trigger on that saw is like shooting a gun. The thing is a beast!!!!
Service is king! I strive to provide outstanding service to the customers I deal with and I believe it makes a difference.
462 power to weight ratio is a dream! Would definitely like to see you run it side by side with your 572.
you know your a ledgend when they playing buckin while working on saws 👌👌just got my 500i yesterday, big big step from my little 362
Buckin one of those saws there is mine. Not sure where it might be in the process but it’s there for sure. Thanks for showing those boys over there.
You have struck gold with them ripsaw fellas buckin😂😂😂
Man ,thats an impressive little saw.
Ive got my new 500i in line with Ripsaw to get ported. I’m SO glad to hear your little note of encouragement at the end that it’s worth the wait. Of course I don’t want to wait 6 months to use my new saw, but I’m gonna have a heck of a power saw when I get it back. I’m super excited!

My MS661 has M tronics, it was an adjustment to learn...but now after 2 years of running it, I wouldn't want a saw without it! :)
A ripsaw 500 is high on my want list
It's great rip saw is so busy. But the wait 16 to 20 weeks is so long. That's almost a 1/2 a year. I hope they figure out something so they can make the process be faster.

I wood not be here if they were not . Great young men
The man the myth the legend
All that and he's a Ham ! Funny ! and he likes his fellow man ! What's not to like 😂
The man is simply fabulous!
Enjoy me some Ripsaw boys! Great job & integrity too 🌲🪓🌲
I really appreciate that a true old school saw man can embrace new technology. It took me a while to get used to my Husky with an electronic carb, but now it's my go to!
crazy right
I truly enjoy the genuine enthusiasm you bring.

That saw sounds awesome. Would love to see a Ripsaw ms881 on the channel for fun, would be a torque monster.
Great info! Those boys are impressive
Hope to own a ripsaw saw someday
I have a 462 hopped up by clearwater saw in Pierce, ID. Runs amazing!
That's so great to see that group of young men doing such a fine job....Quality takes time...
Very cool to see that process 😀 Thank you to the team for sharing that 👍

I hear some people say the Dolmar or Makita's are finicky to tune and get right so you made a wise decision!

Buckin is back in the States. Opening day at the Bunyan tomorrow. Ready to roll ,excitement is in the air. 👍
Cambridge Ohio?
@@tikathompson8345 Yes 3 days look for a large tent with RipSaw logo
we can't get the rap handles over here in uk , they list them in stihl parts catalogues , but it is for us only , so stihl uk cannot supply them ,
give these boys will hookl ya up
It's awesome to see you are in PA. Wish I could get up there to meet you. Due to a back injury, I can't travel far.
Beautiful equipment
Buckin' Billy Ray, you are a awesome guy, and I love to watch you work, but I hope to never (ever) have a saw that gets plugged in to a computer. This is where Im drawing the line...
I love my 461 it's been awesome saw 32in bar it cuts great light power head weight.
I must say I HV a new found respect for Billy Ray and his channel
great content pardner, that was some neat stuff... be safe and have fun!! 👍😎
Hi Ray great job at Paul Bunyan show with the filling on that saw to make it shine 👍🇨🇦🪵🪓❤
thx bert
Hey buckin awesome video and More to come be safe
Thank you for your awesome advice and videos
Great video Buckin!! Thank you!
Pretty serious unit this one Bill 💪🏻💪🏻
Impressive
Wow 😮 that’s really interesting to know that you can check the computer on the saw to make it work how it should work. here in Ireland 🇮🇪 they only have the capability to check the nuts and bolts of the machine other than sending the machine back to sthil for a full physical test and diagnostic test
20 years ago, did anyone honestly think there'd be a day that a power saw was getting tuned on a computer?
Honestly, I thought it would only be for emissions, not to make the saws run better
They aren’t getting tuned, you cannot change set parameters like dwell time in the injector or coil, target AFR, hold times or offsets. Basically the computer is for diagnostic purposes and to put it in reset mode. They are cool regardless but if they could be tuned more power could be had.

Buckin bedtime show gotta love it
Buckin I have a 462 interested to see what you think of it
Enjoy me some Ripsaw boys. Great job & integrity too. 🌲🪓🌲
Gotta have one of them dream-sickle saws...
Thank you…i have a stihl…..it works fine or what i need to do……nuff said! 🤔😄 its all up to you as to what you personally like.
Loving it 👍 💪 🏁
I absolutely love my 462
Hello Billy Ray, thanks for the hospitality at the Paul Bunyan show.
my pleasure friend
I've gotten 3 full wraps since I started watching BBR .... thanks brother
wlcome
Awesome video thank you sir
Great information!
Richard Flagg has been showing the MDG on his channel and how to use it for a cpl years now and has even told everyone how they can get there own!!
Buckin’s a Rip star now 😮
Iam a retired arborist & I’ve always only cut with STIHL. I have a MONSTER 881,661 & a 500i all have bark boxes & Max-Flo air Filters. GREAT saws😊👍👍☝️BE SAFE & BE KIND EVERYONE ❣️✌️✌️✌️

great video buckin not sure if i seen ya run the carburetor 500i yet
Very interesting!

I can’t wait I’m down to 20 days hopefully till I get mine but every time you’re there the wait seems to be worth it
Steve I see three men workin’ very hard to get saw to folks . You will love it 😊
Da Boyz!
Wow😲 how freaking cool!
Ol'Buck'n Billy Ray is coming into the 21st century got'em some auto-tune and fuel injection! WoooooWeeeee
Hi mine super Buckin friend!
We are in the future now
Hihihihihi
I got me a new stock 500i and it’s awesome
I hate cameras too for whatever reason.
I need me one of these saws in scotland! 👌
When your chainsaw needs a computer it’s gone too far. Need to unplug.
Awsum always have backup saws😊.
Is that the same software they use for the MTronic saws? I’ve had my Auto Tunes saws checked/updated but this software looks more advanced….
Where did you get your little Chainsaw necklace pendant from?
Looks like ripsaw have got it made. I've got an old 460 with a barker box and it rips close as my 500i
Good stuff !
I just received mine seems to be a really good build. But I have noticed there is some people that have really strong opinions about this company most are positive some just seem to be really upset by the thought of the ripsaw company as a hole . I don’t really get it. I’m really enjoying my new saw!
there was a guy from germany in one of ur videos about a year ago explaining that exact 500i calibration
Kereenn bro
Waiting is worth it when your waiting for something above just the normal...
Buckin!
Where are the paul bunyan days you go to. I google it and so many of them come up. Im a huge fan and would love to come out and see you
Love your vids Buckin, my comment: "roll the burr."
there ya go . thx
Buck will you be at the Paul Bunyan Show this weekend in Ohio?
I like stihl because my dealer is a guy i went to highschool with and he has stihl🤷♂️
See you Saturday
Hey buck u comin to the Paul Bunyan
I like a saw I can work on my self 🤷🏻♂️
I'm a Stihl guy cause working on Husqvarna sucks there engineering is ass backwards and makes no sense. Stihl is so easy and straightforward.
It's one's preference of what they use
People that bought rip saw 500i’s are sending them to other builders to find out why they are so slow compared to bone stock saws. So that’s really cool considering what these cost from these guys.

@@whitebridge4849 more than 1 builder has a ripsaw abortion in the shop.
How much for the damaged saw. I don't mind it being that way. I have an 046 that was ran over when a truck wrecked into dad's house. I will be at Bunyan on Saturday
So what was the original problem with your 500i didn't they recalibrate it when they first had it when they ported it for you
Wow I'm still happy with my stock 500i but😊
Buckin in the LAB
not the bush this time eh. but soon the lab findings will go to the bush.
If people want to have it all ported etc why does the manufacturer not do it from factory ?
It really cuts fast. Ir it the saw or the design of the chain?
