Here are some pics of my ride. She is aging well, despite being a teenager. I hope she won't start to misbehave. I treat her well.

I always liked the older models. Seems like the older ones were much more distinct. Now days it's hard to tell them all apart at a distance.

Almost all the manufacturers are doing this. I think its so that smaller bikes appeal to that "I NEED a bigger bike in my life" attitude that a lot of new riders have. Not a bad thing, but the Ninja 300 looks so close to the ZX10 at a distance, most non bikers think the 300 is a "Superbike".
 
I've never thought about it this way, but it is the same with cars. Older models have more personality and more of a timeless design. I appreciate you like the photos guys.

Completely right about cars. Look at the BMW 3 series (pre 2017). Everything from the 320 to the 335 looked nearly identical. Everyone does it for cars, they use 1 frame split between multiple engine sizes and comfort levels. Totally right about old cars having more personality. I wouldnt mind a Tesla though, if I lived in the right country :D
 
The best is when you come up to a ZX10R owner and say, "hey is that the new Ninja 250? cool!" and see the expression on their face.

Just having some fun, but the reality is as what you guys said, newer bikes are all looking almost the same regardless of class, there's no unique identity anymore.
