Looks like I'll be buying from the US... Just dropped into the local stealership and they wanted US$164 for just the 537437906 handle!!!

That's great news - thanks for the reply!

I loaned my chainsaw to a young bloke and he came back full of apologies about how a limb bounced and broke the rear handle. I've had a search for parts diagrams online without too much luck but it appears that the handle may be integral with the fuel tank assembly. Is the handle available...
