Does anyone know if the ZZR fairing and the American version are interchangeable?

No, the fairings are NOT interchangeable due to the different frame designs. Just a little clipping from wikipedia to share the differences. The American bikes are all either F model (pre-gen) or J model (new-gen). Your ZZR is in fact an H model.
EX250-H - This model came to Canada as the Ninja 250R between 2000 and 2002, after which it received a new name: ZZR-250, in line with the -H model's name elsewhere in the world, where it had existed since 1992. This motorcycle has few parts in common with the -F model, though it shares the same engine, albeit with different casings. It sports a lateral aluminum frame, a different fairing (designed to make it look sportier), larger 17" wheels, an adjustable rear shock absorber, adjustable brake and clutch levers, a smaller drive sprocket, computer-controlled timing advance, and a revised electrical system.
All of which would have been loved here in the States if they would have bothered to offer it to us........
