Hi dudes and dudettes

Hi, I'm glavey. If you're wondering where the name came from; I was looking at some gravy and needed a ladle, and my dyslexic mind asked someone to pass the glavey. I just carried it onto the internet for no particular reason.

I bought a Boom/Baodiao BD125-8 (the mini-ducati styled one) around fall of last year, practiced with it, and got my MC endorsement within 3 days of getting the bike registered.

Before the motorcycle, I had and still have a TaoTao ATM50-A1 scooter with a 74cc BBK, custom oil cooler and filter (has since been removed), custom underseat-storage-delete seat support, and hacked-together arduino-powered dashboard that doesn't work very well. Here is a link to a thread I made while doing most of those mods. I got discouraged and stopped near the end because although I want to learn it and am intrigued by it, I came to the realization that I just don't have the brain for proficient computer programming.

I have and am eagerly wanting to swap a ZS190 into my bike as well as convert it to EFI using a Microsquirt as well as a few other small mods. I'll start a new thread in the street subsection for the build in a few days. I got impatient and brought the bike into my room; It's cold out and I hate cold.

The engine swap, supporting mods, and wiring will start soon, but the tuning part will have to wait until march or april. I know, I want to start tuning as much as you do.
