RE: What mods do you hate the most?
It depends on the bike.. I don't like big, fat seats on Softail Stds, Dueces, Night Trains or Wide Glides. I don't like windshields on them either. .. or crash bars... or floorboards ..or saddlebags. Basically, no touring stuff on bikes with skinny front wheels.
No Live to Ride stuff or Hyperchargers. No neon. I like spokes too.
If Captain America didn't have it on his bike, I don't need it on mine. [8D]

RE: What mods do you hate the most?
Well "hate" is a pretty stong word.....there are things I see on bikes that I dont like the look for that bike....but I'll see the same mod on another bike and it looks good. I guess the only thing that maybe "bugs" me a bit is when people mix theme's (i.e. skull derby cover, flame timing cover..etc). I can really appreciate someone who obviously has put some thought into the "balance" of thier mods and overall look.....even if I dont particularly like the theme.
