Just requires a closer look for the changes however the bodywork is the same.
The headlights may look the same but they are lighter.

Also the S comes with DTC, can't see it but it's there..

Looks like not even the DucSea guys haven't even been allowed to test ride yet (from the look of those tyres).

The 1098R was 1198cc...
So does that mean they'll have an 1198R that's 1298...
I'd consider rocking that...LOL

It's a lot more than just 100 cc's between the S and the R

External differences that I see, and this assumes these changes are OE. Bodywork looks the same.

1. Termi cans
2. Windscreen
3. Wheels (different pattern)
4. Diablo Supercorsas instead of Dragons (1 step up)
5. Open clutch cover
6. Rearsets.
7. Black rear brake lever?

The Termi's were the first thing I noticed. However, on ducati's website, their pics of the 1198s do NOT have termis. I'm sure some of the other stuff was done by DucSea. Still, an amazing bike.

I Ride: badly
The Termi's, the open clutch cover, clutch pressure plate and the double bubble windscreen are all upgrades. That brings the bikes price into the $25k range. Alot of cash for a bike, it still does not stop me wanting one

Apart from the badging the only external difference you can actually see from the 1098 is if you look closely you can see the TC sensor just in front of the caliper.

Just looked again at the pics and the rearsets don't look OEM.. if not add another $350... ahhh I can see this getting expensive quickly, now what about some carbon fiber
