Turn bet is so weak and putting him on a hand is hard here.

Why do you think it is weak?

[/ QUOTE ]

Betting 2/5 pot I consider weak, until proven otherwise (ie raise).

...I assume he knows I am solid, so he's not calling that much with his crappy transparent draw...He should be putting me on a set here, that's how I'd be playing one.

One thing I've noticed between this and your 97s post is that you're putting alot of faith in your opponents reads on you. This thinking is going to be a huge advantage to you as you move up (especially $600NL+) but I think you may be putting too much value into image and folding equity at $200NL? People want to make hands on rivers and see showdowns.

I'd call turn and see what happens on the river. If he makes it half pot or less on the river I'd consider raising.

I have narrowed it down to this or fold.

Don't fold for 2/5 bet on the turn. I'm not going to speculate the river because there are numerous scare cards that could come, but assuming it's a blank (I'd like to see big cards on the river) I'd call a half-pot - 2/3 pot bet and raise any of his weak-ass fraction bets.
