Hmmm...

The only one I saw all day was my mates race bikes which have the pukka WSB spec Ohlins, wide track etc, they don't have a nut or two of the pinch bolts, the spindle itself has a thread which screws directly into the fork leg, and thus only requires 2 pinch bolts to hold everything in place from memory.

It must obviously speed up the process, but you'd need to spend quite a bit to go down that route, new fork bottoms, new spindle and I doubt, although I stand to be corrected the race bikes use a larger spindle size, so different front wheel and it'll be a longer spindle also as it's wide track, so different yokes to top off your list.

That's gonna cost you a couple of grand, unless there's a road (748RS type) version
