Tyres being equal and engine power aside what is the real difference between the bikes with regards to geometry and weight? because the chassis is the same, the engine is the same other than a few internal components and the weight difference is minimal (basically the weight of the missing oil cooler and 1/4L of oil on a standard 748). Now a 748R will have better suspension components and some weight savings over a standard bike along with more power and the more rev-happy nature should make it easier to get on the power whilst the the larger engines have more torque - making it easier for the less race-focused. But given that most people (that I've met) run the 180 rear/70 profile front combination regardless of model then any differences must be largely down to setup and, of course the size of your testicles...
