748R Front Discs different?

Dear All

Wonder if you could shet some light on this for me.

I bought a set of Brembo front discs from e-Bay last year to use on my 998S race bike. They were advertised as "wider offset" type, "off a 2001/2002 748R."

What puzzles me is that the offsets are indeed wider, making them unusable on my 998S, but after having a large number of 9*6/9*8x bikes, I'd always thought running gear was identical on all models in terms of size.

I've checked the 2002 Ducati parts catalogues and these do indeed show different part numbers for front discs between the two models, but I'm aware that these do sometimes change for other reasons when the parts are actually identical.

Could anyone shed any light as to whether these discs are truly from a 748R, or are they something else masquerading?

Thanks in anticipation.
