I have finally found a picture of Hana using what I believe to be an R-32 at Fed Cup in Prague, 1986. It's stenciled and everything. As far as I know it was the only time that she ever used that racquet and appeared to get some good pop on a clay court with it easily defeating Sabatini amongst others before losing to Martina.
I don't know if she intended to play on with this racquet or not, but by the US Open she was back to her trusty Wilson Ultra II. I just can't figure out why she would use such an important event to test a racquet and also have the racquet stencilled without an endorsement.
I've hit with several Yonex R series racquets like Martina's R-22. But I've never seen one of these up close, so I have no idea if it plays similarly to her old stick
