My 2001 748R, which I bought new, has the regular steering dampner(NOT Ohlins), carbon airbox, Ohlins suspension front & rear and a number plate on the upper triple clamp. The only place on the bodywork that "748R" appears is a tiny little script at the bottom of the number plate on the tail section, it has no R on the front fairings. I suspect that the OP's bike is a 2000 748R, as Jimmy said.
