They are approvals. They appeared on the K1, too. I presume when bureaucracy caught up with regulating motorcycles. The DGM one used to be stamped on the frame with the frame number.

The archive in this link just covers mopeds and small bikes, but it also has an explanation of Italian homologation numbers...

Those who have a post July 1960 Corsaro will be familiar with IGM 1068 OM.

As mentioned, The OM and DGM numbers are homologation numbers.

Your frame number is K24280 and this is all that should appear on the V5.
