it's suzuki's hayzbusa logo for their 1300 sportbike, i know hayabusa means in search for a sample of a type of meteorite. but as far as how to convert english fonts to japanese fonts not sure, here's site that has a"bunch" of fonts that may be able to help or try emailing suzuki and see what kind of reply you get www.1001freefonts.com or try this forum www.kustomkulturelounge.com lots of informative artist all over the world there and all willing to help.

thanks man i will check it out. the problem is in finding a direct translation. if the stroke order is off it will change the meaning of the whole character.
