I didn't notice that the intermediate bearing between the crankshafts was greased before installing and would also expect that the two coupling clamp bolts would have been locktited before installation. Excellent video and attention to detail.

The assembly is indeed quite complex, and even though I have done it countless times, I don't always think of everything while recording. So, thank you for your comments and feedback.
In fact, I have never used thread locker on the clamp but rather new Nordlocks. Thread locker could theoretically lose its effectiveness at high temperatures, whereas Nordlocks do not, especially under dynamic loads.
However, it might be a good idea to use thread locker on the central shaft bolt if it has been removed more than six times, as Nordlocks slowly lose their effectiveness over time.

Schade dass du die Videos nicht auf deutsch machst 😢klar erreicht man so ein größeres Publikum und es gibt in UK wesentlich mehr Lambretta Fahrer,als bei uns,aber gerade weil es so wenig Videos zu Lambretta auf deutsch gibt,hätte ich es geil gefunden

Ich verstehe dein Argument, jedoch denke ich, dass mein "Dinglisch" für Muttersprachler auch nicht gerade angenehm ist... 😉

We don’t see you torque the joining clamp or the bolt through the centre of the crankshaft.

Thank you, @Coolrunnings2, for your comment and great observation!
I intentionally left that out because I plan to make further modifications and will be taking the engine apart again. This means I'll have to loosen both the clamp and the central bolt anyway.
For the clamp, I can easily replace the Nord-Locks after using them once. However, replacing the Nord-Lock in the crankshaft is not as straightforward, so I decided to preserve the fastening.
I will make sure to mention your comment at the beginning of the next part and explain why I didn’t torque them this time.
Many thanks again, and best regards!
