Yes fools IMO want that.
Common for about half that cost though.
When husky swapped out some of the dealers would sell them for their cost they had in them.
I despise the plastic handles on any saw myself. IMHO they vibrate more.
Compared my metal handle 501 with thick rubber coating to plastic handle one like on 4910 490.
Another guy with 590 620 noticed same thing and swapped handles on saws to see. He said metal handle on 590 also vibrated less then the cheap plastic handle. 620 with the plastic handle then vibrated more to him, testing.
Echo 4910 with the vibrating plastic handles. Here is what Corey did to go 572 metal full wrap on his tester back in the day. He stated as soon as went metal with rubber coating vibrations were lot less.
I have noticed the difference in my 501 with aluminum handle and thick rubber coating compared to my plastic handle one.
Not that I need a FW on 50cc but 50 buck for 501 half wrap new.
Buy a whole dang 572 kit for the price on a 501 handle too.
Clutch cover, handle, west coast spikes etc etc. Crazy good price

I don't pay attention to the vibes on any of my saws. Although, I do must of my heavy cutting with newer pro saws and my playing around with some of the other saws. But with that said, I would like to know where you got the FW for the 4910? I will be ordering one pronto....
You got to make them from husqvarna 572 FW handle. Shown in last pic.
Didnt used to bother me either. But my hands can tell now.
Friend has a ported 4910 he wont run because of the vibes from it. Hurts his hands in short time using.
You guys on the fence on the 400 older version. New version feedback

I have ran the 400.1 for several months and it’s impressive for its size and weight. It has more torque and you can feel it. In testing they wanted us to stress it and find weaknesses so I ran a 32” bar on it for several hours of use and it did okay.

Picked up a like new Makita EA3600F recently. It's a pretty snappy little lightweight saw.
Had to look that one up. Never heard of it around here and I had a dealer for them local.
Manual info so I could read. Some great info on it.
