No Forum for 250cc 2C, so here goes - changing the fluid in the Paioli front forks on my 250cc 2C model, I discovered grub screws in the bottom of the fork top nuts, so curiosity got the better of me and I unscrewed them and out popped a ball bearing and a spring from each.
Ah, methinks, a pressure relief valve, or is it? And if it is how is it set up?
Have searched around for information on these, but no luck. Can anyone enlighten me?

Re: Paioli forks
Hi, these spring/balls are stock for all older Morini forks, had 'm in my Marzocchi on my 3 1/2 '74. I think they are indeed pressure releive valves for extremes. I cleaned 'm and put am back where they belonged, still have to find the bump that will engage 'm though. Driving a speed bump at 100km/h might help .....

Speed bumps at 100kph? Now, why did I not think of that! Your reply re.
