Looking for something that will actually do something to a thief upon destruction. I heard of Skunk locks that release a vomit inducing chemical. Their effect seems to be limited from what I have heard.

Is there anything I can add to locks that I already got such as flammable tape or something? I want something that would make continuing the process unbearable.

Something that gets dye on their hands and white addidas 3-stripes?

That said, anything like that is asking for it to be set in fire instead of nicked.

What's your opinion on wheel clamps and steering locks on cars as additional security measures to alarms, immobilisers, and tracker systems? Are these visual incentives for thieves to cause damage instead of stealing the vehicle looks too complicated?

They are visible deterrents so they probably wouldn't try it. What I was saying if they start trying to steal it and something painful or unpleasant happens to them in the process, your average ratboy will get pissed off with it and smash it up instead.

I always liked the idea of those tyre valve locks that slowly deflate the tyre if it's ridden off with them in place. Too much risk of forgetting about them myself for me though.

If you want to make the process of them being a thief to become unbearable for them then they need to die. It's a scientifically proven fact that thieves commit less crime when they are dead so that is the only answer.

Your flammable tape could be used as a fuse that sets the thief on fire. If they're sat on the bike when the petrol tank explodes then there could be some good injuries from shrapnel as well as them burning.

What other items have you already got that might be useful?

Buy deadly snake venom off that internet.
Take small doses daily until you're immune to it.
then slather the stuff all over your bike and wait for thieves
to die in agony.

Syringes filled with something nasty strategically placed under the seat so if you sit on it the needles penetrate your bum and your weight causes the syringes to inject something into your ass. Could even be just air, I read that that can kill you.

These suggestions are overly elaborate. How about a GPS tracker and a cosh?

Air bag ejector seat. Bad for the bike as well as the thief but maximum comedy value Smile
