750 Phonos exhaust

Basketcase

Senior member
Does anyone have detailed photos showing the mounting of the Phonos exhaust system to a 750 ?

I have a system here marked "Laverda 750 S" and the headers kick inwards heaps.

Then the mufflers kick outwards much like a triple. The mufflers have a cross/balance pipe instead of a collector box.

I haven't tried to assemble it yet in case it turns out not to be for the Breganze 750 and I am wasting my time.
 
Headers fit the motor OK.

Mufflers stamped "Laverda 750 S"

I have just never seen one like this.

That does look cool, never seen one before.  Definitely not a factory item!

Lots of little manufacturers produced all sorts of stuff for Laverdas, they usually came and went quickly. 

Can you please post a close-up of the stamping?

I can find references to Phonos exhausts on German websites, but no mention of Laverda.

Anyway, the pipes will go nicely with this SF0 tank and seat to make a retro caf? racer out of an old and incomplete 1973 GT sitting in my garage.

Low resolution image.

Having lots of trouble editing and saving photos in a low enough resolution format to permit attachments.

Interesting looking tank.

The seller acquired it with the intention to install on a genuine SFC but reckoned it did not quite look right !

My GT has an SF2 front end, but I am sure the tank will look just fine with disc brakes.

The single seat is a bit shorter than my other fibreglass one with the toolbox in the back under the lid. I shall find a way of storing tools under the back of this one, it is a metal pan with a bit of space at the rear. Just have to take the seat off to get to it.
 
If you follow the instructions early in the "how to" topic in General on this forum you can get photos down to size easily.
The seat in your pic looks to me like one from a triple. You may be able to do a swap for one to suit your twin.
I think you will just have to try the fit of the exhaust to see how it works.
I do hope your "cafe racer" idea is more along the lines of a period sportsbike than the modern interpretation inflicted on unsuspecting Japanese collectable bikes from the ?70s.
Don?t worry about Chris?sarcasm re your text, humour come with the territory here :-)
