I've seen everything from 7 inch round, dual 4 inch round, rectangular, stacked rectangular, stacked mini-beam, shield, number-plate with LED, some type of cyborg thing...spend an evening or two looking at Bike EXIF for ideas.

The FZ6 was built from 2004 to 2009. It was based off of the 2003 R6. It was replaced in 2009 by the FZ6R. The frames of the two bikes are completely different (however the suspension is identical); the FZ6 is all alumium whereas the 6R is chromolly tubing making it heavier and less stiff. The engine shares the same bore and stroke dimensions and compression ratio with the FZ6 but the cylinder head, crankcase, intake and exhaust system, clutch and shifter are different. The FZ6 makes around 100 horsepower, while the FZ6R makes around 66 HP. In short, they are different bikes.

Hey new guy, welcome.
As mentioned above, you have a completely different bike from everyone else here, and from your picture it looks like a previous owner already modified the headlight from stock.

Here’s what your bike originally looked like:

Here is the forum for your bike, they might be able to help you out better.
