I personally have not experienced anything blatantly negative. Just typical stereotypes and assumptions about Westerners. I have heard of people being treated in a discriminatory fashion, but just as you have said, racism and bigots exist everywhere in the world and Japan is no exception. That being said though, I would say there is nothing generally or at least outwardly racist about how most Japanese treat foreigners.
