Yes thought along the same lines. But was stumped with the rear light and the ignition key on the headset. Defo made for a foreign market I think

US ones are a giveaway as they have extra orange reflectors on the sides of the front mudguard etc.
Yours may be German spec as they had a key ignition on the headset and an odd rear light I think?
Is the 2% mixture sticker still on the fuel cap? -does it say 'Benzin'?
