The only 1098 M's I know of are custom one-offs by famed Ducati racer/builder/mechanic Brad Miller. If that is what he thinks he bought, he REALLY got ripped off. Brad's typically uses the good Ohlins stuff, not just the cheap factory Ducati S/R Ohlins parts, plus TONS of carbon bodywork, and other trick bits (slipper clutch, huge Termi's, data acquisition, etc.). In other words, they will walk on 1098R's.
Edit:
Here, show this to your buddy! This is the last 1098M that Brad built/sold.
That should make him cry if he actually spent $30k on his standard 1098 with fancy paint.

I was trying to remember who made the great modified 1098s, that's the guy. Those are the only modified new Ducati superbikes that are worth anything. Otherwise, people prefer them stock or race-prepped. They are works of art.
