Not the US, I know that much. And the 650's never been out in Japan, as far as I remember. So probably some part of europe.
First registration doesn't tell you much, that just means it was imported as new. Maybe you can find out from the chassis number?

Well, here's the obvious thing we've missed- could be a replacement headlight.
Never actually met one in person, but in theory the projector should be a better light than is standard. It's the dip, I understand, don't know where it'll point though. The other lamp, I think, has a H7 in it for full beam only.
