RE: What mods do you hate the most?
Excessiveness:
Frame Stretching: I don't mind up to 3 inches but anything over that I don't care for
Raking: I like choppers and raking, but some just plain old over do it
Chrome: Too much or not enough.
----Is nice if used sparingly, it is ment to accent a bike not take over
----A bike with no chrome looks blah
I could go on, but I think you folks get the idea.

I dont really "hate" any mods, everybody has their own ideas about what is best, and that's cool with me. For my own bike, I try to stay away from any add-ons that do not serve a purpose other than appearance. Like those chrome covers that go over stuff, but don't really do anything except make it shiny.

To each their own - I don't hate anything on a Harley.
Not fond of:
Windshields (until I'm on a 500 mile trip and it starts raining or I hit a sandstorm)
An over-abundance of lights
Too many tassles (some look good...too many is tacky in my opinion)
At the end of the day - if it makes you happy about your bike - that's all that counts.

RE: What mods do you hate the most?
I don't know about "hate" but things I would never put on my bike, or am taking off as I can afford it.
Chrome.
Glo lights.
Spoke lights.
Animal patterns (although some sidestands that look like animal legs seem cool)
Fairings
Bags

RE: What mods do you hate the most?
Oh, I thought you were going to talk about those stuffed animals.
My wife asked about that the other day. I stared at her with horror on my face and said "This isn't a Honda!" (No offense to any of yall that like the stuff animals.)
