Default ITR flywheel...real or fake?

At the moment, I'm still rockin' my Jun flywheel (starter grind and all). Many months ago, I purchased this from a member on h-t as back-up. Supposedly, it's an ITR flywheel w/about 3k miles on it. If anyone is familiar w/the ITR flywheel, could you please verify that this is one. I'm mostly concerned by this picture...



Those holes there...has it been lightened or something? Forgive me, I'm not a flywheel expert at all. Here are some more...





And in this next picture, this "15" doesn't happen to mean 15 lbs. does it?



If you need more info to help me solve this, let me know. I haven't decided if I'm going to sell it or not, but regardless, I'd like to know if it's real. And just to note, the total weight of the flywheel w/packaging was under 17 lbs when shipped. Also note, it's not that dark looking...I was using a slow speed film w/flash.

Thanks for your help!

an ITR flywheel is 11lbs stock. in the pix it doesn't appear to be machined so if it's that weight you should have a winner.
You people are full of good information.

STOCK WEIGHT = **15lbs**

Those are balancing holes.

Yeah, I knew it was 15 lbs. myself. Thought I'd share these details as well...

All I see on the flywheel that resembles anything like a part # are the following "codes" at 12, 3, 6, and 9 o'clock on it...M2, 9X, 15, and AG. On the flip side, three "Z's" on the inner diameter.

Maybe someone will recognize those?

Not yet, I don't have a scale in my apartment here. Maybe I'll run out and buy one this evening and update after the results. All I know is that w/packaging (came in a Toda flywheel package), it was under 17 lbs.

other stock flywheels weigh 19-20lbs. so even if its a regular flywheel shaved to itr
weight, it should still be fine.
