you can't miss with painted grills.
The typeface is too big and IMO that one is too generic too gimicky. I would try cap N and lower case inja. Definitely try italicized .....perhaps an easier to read font and exagerated slant to convety speed. I like kanjis but what you have is too big.
1" high type is very easy to read from 40-50 feet. It does not need to be that big if you are thinking people won't be able to see it.

Maybe it's just me but I love the all black murdered out look. Those red graphics just don't look right on such a nice paint job. BTW, who painted it and how much $$$? I just bought another 14, red, and really want it black.

'Ninja" type is much better. I'd try cuttong the kanjis to half that size or less. Also remember this is a pic of the bikes shadow side. the graphics would be a bit darker than what you are showing..

HMMM? the tank cover? I would only put the Ninja logo there if it was very small. That would be unique and leave a less cluttered looking scheme.
IMO, you do not need to have everything maxed out on size. Establishing priority by having a variety of sized conveys your ideas but is good and it also avoids the unpleasant effect of the elements competing for attention.
