Up for sale is my vintage STIHL 090G gear-drive chainsaw.

Features a 137cc piston and cylinder.

A rare and highly collectible early STIHL, and the much less commonly seen gear-drive version of the legendary 090.
The saw starts and runs, as shown in the attached video.
Due purely to the age of the saw and the nature of vintage machinery, I have listed it under eBay's “For parts or not working” category. Although it currently runs, it is being sold as-is and I cannot provide any guarantee regarding its future mechanical condition or reliability.
It presents in honest, unrestored condition with considerable original patina, paint wear, scratches and marks from many years of use. I have intentionally left the saw as found rather than restoring or repainting it.
Please study all photographs carefully as they form part of the description.
