Those allan head bolts are the retainers for the damper rods inside the fork, NOT drains. DO NOT REMOVE THEM, THEY HOLD THE WHOLE THING TOGETHER, AND THE FORK SPRINGS WILL THEN PUSH THE LOWERS OFF THE STANCHION TUBES.

That's some good intel there....

You must remove the axle to access the drain plug/bolts that are at the end of the fork tubes. No need to remove the forks and invert them.  :)
