Shame about the advertising on the side, unless they're paying you.

Get a very sharp new stanley/craft knife blade and run it FLAT along the bodywork which will take the sticker off as you run the blade beneath it. Use tar/sticker remover to get any excess sticky off.

DO NOT ANGLE THE BLADE as you will end up with chunks of paint.

Not a fan of the colour, but I know lots of people like green Ninjas. Is there a non faired Ninja 250 or something to that equivalent?

I found stickers/vinyl came off very well with a VERY HOT hair dryer and some patience.

I used a hair fryer to get the stickers off my old GPZ.
I'd suggest only using a blade as a last resort, or at the very least just to start the edge of the sticker AFTER the glue's been softened with the hair dryer. HTH Thumbs Up

I'm considering one of these for when I eventually get Mod 2 passed and get my 33bhp restriction.

be very carefull with stickers, on my old cagiva mito, the stickers where some special beveled type, it was melted in the frame, when i got it off, i got an 0.5 inch depth unpainted place , without dryer dont do it, u ll just scratch the frame.

stickers can ruin a bike if ur not carefull

I'm thinking of buying one for my wife, she is doing 100+ mile trips on her 125, and could do with something that could hold 70mph.

Dont do this unless you want to fuck it up!
