That should fix you up as well as a 200T
We should share what we know... someone may learn...

Thanks for the great post and breakdown pics?   

So have you got a 338 2139 to compare to still? 

Also if you have could you get me a PHO dry weight of the 338 2139 if you do.  Randy got me the 540 already.

Yes we have a well used 338 and severla 435T's.  I'll do what I can to compare them and get weight.

Just wondering about feel in the hands too, 338 v/s T540.  I know I liked the way the 338 feels in the hands then I did my 200T.

I figure the T540 will cut like or better then the 200T. But my 2 338 weren't bad cutter IMO either.  I feel I gave up a little with 338 to have a better feeling 1 handing saw.

It feels big to me but not heavy.  Mostly due to the bulk toward the rear as in the carb and fuel tank.  It balances very well.
