I had a few issues with the Ninja. First the Metzelers that I mounted were past their prime. The rear was sliding around. It would step out every time my knee touched. Second was the front end was hopping around real hard in fast turns. Tried to push through it but thought better of it. The last issue which is all me and my inexperience on the 300 was that I hit the rev-limiter almost all the time.
looking at your pictures, you may want to get your head and shoulders forward and down, that should help with the tire issues and bouncy front end. as for the rev limiter, go a gear higher.
