My wife loves the D loop when working around the garden, but I cut the perimetre (3/4 acre at her parents, 3/4 acre at my grandparents house and 4 acres forest at my grandparents house) of the house in the same time with the bike handle as she is playing around(did I just say play.ssshhhhh. I also have an excellent harness for my d loop because it makes working so much nicer. That doesn't mean that you can't do either work with either setup. Since you can see where I'm from, I can tell you that I prefer the bike handles on any slop all day long! And when it gets real steep I strap crampons to my climbing boots. The d loop is to me more of a surgical scalpel, the bike handle is more for open ground / large areas. I will not make that offer, however, if the serial number comes up bad. If you can prove that the trimmer is not stolen and you do not like the bike handles, I might swap you the loop stuff from my personal 250. The theft ring that hit all of the Stihl dealers in this area last spring is back to it, and there is plenty of stolen stuff floating around. While a pair of new 250's in the box for $450 would be the screaming deal of the century, if they are stolen it would not. Anyway, there is no such thing as ONE FS-250 in a box. So the "no warranty" story does not add up. If it is leftover stock from a closed dealer, it can still be registered by you and carry the appropriate warranty. There is absolutely no reason for there to be a 250 for sale new in box.
