Title: 372xp 372xpg power!
Post by: minesmoria on July 03, 2007, 09:16:34 PM
I have bith 372xp and xpg.

I was told the 372xpg full wrap  is 74 cc 5.4 hp and xp is 4.9 hp 70 cc

The canada  husky site has both listed  70 cc 5.4 the us site does not have them at all!

I do rember other menbers saying they got the xpg model which was more powerful

Baileys has the xpg listed at 74 cc 5.4 hp. Canada husqvarna site has both models 5.4 hp and 70 cc.

So what the heck is going on with all theses numbers?

Didn't know there was a differance.Got mine about 4 years ago.Mine came out of Canada.The G means heated handles for us sissies that like our hands nice and warm when it's cold out.I knew there was a better warm to keep my hands warm than the exhaust of the tractor.   ;)

Bailey's is a XPW and has only been around for less than a year I do believe, all other 372's are 70 cc that I have seen and the G only means heated handles

Righto! The new larger displacement saw that Bailey`s and Madsens are both selling is the 372XPW. The 371/372 has always been 5.4hp as far as I know and I believe that the XPG is actually .1hp less at the clutch than the XP when the heaters are turned on. No free lunch eh eh

Bailey's say they may not be getting any more of the 75cc saws so if you want one better act fast before they are gone but it could just be like the 372 that was to be gone but thousands keep showing up

True, I believe the heated handles "eat" about . 06 kw, when in use, nothing when not in use..... :)

The "W" has to do with handlebar style, and has nothing to do with powerhead performance.

yes but the 372 XPW is a 75cc motor  not a 70cc motor from Baileys, the W does mean full wrap handle which I donot like but I donot like full wraps to begin with ,

Right........well sort of.  ;) As Ed pointed out, the W models from Bailey`s and Madsen`s are the factory big bore, the half wraps are the standard bore so in this one case the W does also have a relationship to performance.

Isn`t Bailey`s running a deal where you buy a W and they throw in a free halfwrap handle?

Hello
I bought a Bailey's 372 XPW 75cc, full rap handle. I only used it to cut up a Box Elder when I first got it just to try it out...

YES! I seen that ad too.
If I only needed a saw to get modded, LOL.

I think that is the true story, the 71 and 75cc ones are rated the same (when stock), and I one read that the heating "eats" .06 kW or so.
