I believe the XCR has reinforced rails, tunnel, maybe different bars and riser etc. and the shock package is said to be between the S and X.
From the mags;
The new "rider-centric" AXYS XCR will be available in a 600 or 800cc version. It's basically a 120-inch Rush with all the best-of-the-best options on it, including the Pro-XC rear suspension. The rail beams are reinforced, there is chromoly on the front torque arm of the rear suspension, and the rear pivot, heavy duty track mounts and solid bogie wheels as well as racing rear axle wheels are just a few upgrades from a standard Pro-S Rush. A new brake rotor with more surface area, as well as new Type 81 brake pads and a new "ram air"-type brake scoop for cooling the area, are some more examples of the XCR’s racing background. Most importantly to many folks that might take this cross country racing, it has Walker Evans Hi-Lo compression adjustable shocks all the way around, with a 2-inch diameter center track shock.
“Think of this acting more like an off-road rally truck,” said engineer Jason Miller. “We want it to be fast around the corners, with little roll, but also able to take big hits and jumps.”
A 1.35-inch lugged Cobra track gives this a little more grip, and a 2.52-inch pitch driveshaft with a solid jackshaft help put power seamlessly and durably back to that track. There is also a beefier Pro-X torsion bar in the front end, and a Pro-X handlebar riser holding the racer bars.
It says 120" track but if the drivers are 2.52 pitch, the track would be 121"????
