From the urban dictionary:

"The word is generally accepted to mean a combination of "function" and "sparkle", hence, farkle. Motorcycle enthusiasts may install accessories, called farkles (also spelled farkel), to customize their machine."
F*** work.

And "farkle" isn't always complimentary. Sometimes it has connotations of prioritizing function too far before appearance. If you see a KLR with every accessory from the SW Motech catalog, plus some DAMN junk from Pep Boys, and some home made stuff (like a PVC tool tube), you could properly say "DAMN, that bike is farkled" and it would be a statement about how it's over-done, perhaps tacky-looking, possibly ridiculous, and maybe even perfume on a pig.
