The 998R has 150hp???
998S has 136 out of the box I think the R has about 2 more

Frame, wheels, grips, seat pad, headlight bucket all different and there wasn't just 155 made, 155 for the US market, less power to meet emissions but carbon bodywork and signed tank, Euro spec "S" Engine but plastic bodywork. Bostrom rep isn't a race rep also due to tobacco advertising (L&M) it's a rep of his lid.
Also the Bayliss/Bostrom reps have Ohlins forks over the standard S model
