You're right. (S2R1000 is Showa though)
The (almost) consensus is that these forks can't be helped. "Closed cartridge, maybe springs and oil". However, there is a handful of real experts who can transform them. If your guy isn't among them, he and you are better off with something else instead of blindly chasing solutions you will have to pay for.
If you go the cartridge route ... remember that the Marzocchis have slightly different fork cap threads. Even if the cartridges for "Showa" bikes otherwise fit, the caps might not.
