3C exhaust manufacture

[helicopterjim]

Hello

My 3C has a nice exhaust with the designation Laverda DGM 1086/ S ......... it has a seamless construction.

I have a spare set with seamed construction and a La Franconi logo above the same Laverda DGM 1086/ ..... but with S/C at the end.

Just wondering which one would be correct ...... if there is such a thing as correct for a Laverda.

Thank you
Jim

Definitely not the seamed ones.

Seamless was used until 1978. My 1978 1200 had them and Cerianis as standard.
My guess would be the seamed type came late 1978 or early 1979 when changing to Marzocchi suspension.

My 1981 model 3CL originally had seamed silencers.
They rotted through before the bike was run in.

my 1980 1200 had seemed silencers from new,
same as Polo, they rotted quickly, and Strangely TOG now has them on, I wonder how long they will last.

So these top secret pipes are worth a lot less than what the seller believes they are worth?
