Broken bones would've been easier 😂, got used to it now so not a big deal. I'm self employed so know exactly how it is. Nothing is ever going to stop me riding tho! I've thought differently about things after ramdonly getting DVT and Pulmonary embolisms last yr. On blood thinners now for life so have to be more careful with everything tbh.

    I have a highway 268 popup in my 50mm g372xp. Started with 3 base gaskets, .022" squish. 155 exhaust duration, 160 intake. Took it back apart about a month ago, made base gaskets, set squish at .014". Now have 195 psi compression. Saw is much stronger than stock. The big bore kits, they increased the bore size without increasing the transfer port area. That's the reason the 50mm bore makes more hp than the 52 mm bore.

    I haven't had any problems with 10%ethanol fuel in many years. Store it in a sealed container aka one with a valve. It also sits in my saws, trimmers,blower. The carb kits and fuel lines have been improved to deal with 10% ethanol for many years now. I think the purge bulbs still fail a little more often on my equipment that has them, but they are a dime a dozen. A lot cheaper than ethanol free gasoline. The standard pump gas gets turned over much more often than the ethanol free so it is much fresher also.

The Special is probably the toughest of the bunch. I worked at a mill where we had 365 Special powered winch for pulling miles of box link/ drag chain onto conveyors. Think real hard pulls, way longer than any wood cutting scenario. The winch broke quite often but the Special never blew up.
