I have found 2x OEM crankshaft and conrod.

So, I remove the Italkit for an other 315R.

The flywheel was machined from 3.5kg to 3kg.

The engine is running well.

No vibration, no leeks. Great and Happy !

After months of stopping, reassembly resumes.
Brakes and clutch hoses after a major cleaning to decontaminate them of deposits.
Installation of the selector, the brake pedal, the gearbox exit protection.
I need to rebuild a rear wheel spacer to slightly offset the caliper.
