Those are two different bikes, sparky.

The 1198 has the same Showa suspension as the 848.

The point was that there isn't a need for an S3 "R" as is already has the upgraded suspension and brakes.

It would be like selling an 1198 with ohlins, TC and Marchesini's and then selling the 1198S.

Pretty much redundant redundancy, no?
