People get their bikes modified all the time. Most, however, go for wraps, or custom body panels or maybe even better tires. Some also love to add power with an engine swap or other after-market performance enhancements. Sadly, some motorcycle owners go so overboard, they turn their motorcycles into something most of us hate seeing on the road.

A motorcycle should be something to enjoy a ride on, not a tool to display your art or design preferences on. Getting them wrapped or painted bizarrely is a strange thing to do. The extreme of anything is bad, and the same goes for motorcycle mods that seem to have come from a Mad Max-fuelled nightmare. Here are 14 puke-worthy motorcycle mods no motorcycle lover would ever do to his favorite ride, as far as we know. Which one do you dislike the most?

Here’s one dude who has taken his love for tattoos and Harley-Davidson a bit too far by combining both. We would have understood had the gentleman got a Harley tattoo on his body, what we don’t understand is the opposite. His Harley-Davidson is wearing tattoos in a plethora of black and gold, with other colors thrown in for good measure.

Yes, we know ape hangers or gorilla handlebars are a thing. But if you make them a thing to an extent that you have to stand on your motorcycle to be able to ride it, you have gone too far. Riding this motorcycle will also guarantee the rider a trip to the chiropractor, and maybe to a psychiatrist as well.

12 This Furry Bike

The perfect motorcycle for someone who wants the speed of the Jetsons combined with the lifestyle of the Flintstones, this is modern technology fur-covered to an extent we may never want to see any motorcycle ever again. The owner probably wanted his beast to feel like he's riding a tiger into battle.

This looks like a motorcycle a wannabe helicopter pilot would get if he failed to get into the army. The dual exhaust on this one looks the bike could be jet turbine-powered, and the girth of the motorcycle alone would be enough to give you a permanent pelvic crick or even crack.

10 A Moulin Rouge Motorcycle Gone Bonkers

Yes, there is a genuine story behind this bizarre motorcycle that has a shrine on the back for a grown man’s teddy bear, named Alan Measles. The man in question is Grayson Perry. He has a female alter ego called Claire and is a Turner award winner. The story still doesn’t mean we can bear this denigration done to a Harley-Davidson Knucklehead.

The ever-lasting love of 19th-century machinery, coupled with the need for speed on open roads gave birth to this lovechild that will find a few niche fans for sure. For the rest of us, even the thought of riding such a bare-boned motorcycle makes our bones ache.

After one look at this woody motorcycle, we are forced to imagine what would happen to it and the rider, in case of a skid, slip, or crash. Other than being riddled with splinters in the most awkward of places, a motorcycle like this would offer no protection whatsoever to the rider, so it's best to leave wood for furniture and let your motorcycle retain metal.

When you have modified a motorcycle to the point when you cannot make out the kind or make, and can’t even figure out that it’s a motorcycle in the first place, things have gone wacko for sure. This "motorcycle" looks more like a moving gift shop than an exciting cruiser.

We understand that this custom bike design might be polarizing, but we can't shake the conviction that the builder has simply gone too far with this one. Not only does it look disturbing but it also seems fairly uncomfortable. It's either a very innovative concept or a ridiculous bike no one wants to look at. We'll leave this one up to you to decide.

If you are shocked by this, well, it was designed to shock and awe and be burned onto your eyeballs forever. The people who did this to a Ducati Scrambler are MotoCorsa, Ducati’s biggest dealership in the US, and they did because they loved the very “visceral” reactions this motorcycle got from everyone.

Every boy's childhood dream is to riding horses (or, for some, hogs). Otherwise, why would you turn your motorcycle into an iron swine or a metallic stallion? Or maybe this is a true-blue representation of the phrase when pigs fly. Even if they are made for a parade, these nightmarish bikes are nonetheless disturbing.

This dude here seems to have stolen a saber-toothed tiger from an amusement park and somehow got it installed onto his motorcycle, replete with a tail. So either he thinks this makes his motorcycle cool as a cat, or he plans to run away to the circus and ride his La Sabre in the motordrome.

If you want a perfectly good motorcycle to suddenly sound more like a diesel locomotive having an asthma attack, here’s a good way to do it. It looks like some dude had the bright idea of stealing a metallic cone off a construction site and then hammering it onto the exhaust. Why? Probably in hopes of having his bike sound even louder and more obnoxious. Note the "terminator" scribbled on the exhaust.

If you see the stance of the rider on this, you’ll understand why he had his front prongs extended to Kingdom Come. It's like he's doing a permanent wheelie, without needing the physical prowess to do it. Of course, without any form of suspension, if it encounters a smallest bump, this motorcycle is guaranteed to leave the rider buried face first in the asphalt.
