  4. It will be B not 8 when you get around to photographing it. Granted it looks very much like an 8.

  8. We’ll see ........ eventually.

  10. Just wondering as the 749R above has a C and the 998R is a souped up version of the 2nd gen testastretta engine from the 749/999 range isn’t it?

    I’m still not convinced yours are really Rs, ever thought you might have been sold a kipper (or 6) :joy:

  19. So looking at @motecben ’s 998R above, how on earth does Mario know which engine to put into the frame when he comes to do that? I mean I’m sure there’s a bit of paperwork stuck to the engine as well but what if it comes unstuck:thinkingface:
     
    #79 West Cork Paul, Jun 20, 2020
  20. Then a 998S might even get a 996R engine :scream:
