A Farewell from Rusty Shackleford

[Rusty Shackleford]

Hey folks,

It's time for me to move along. I've learned a lot here and done a ton of research to even attempt a couple of write ups myself, but just don't have the time to stay as active in the community as I used to. My account will still be open; so for those of you who have DM'd me for advice, and those who wish to do so in the future, I'll still get back to you. Anyone who wants to friend me on Facebook or Twitter, send me a DM and we'll exchange info. I have a feeling I'm going to end up blogging with some other guys about practical/general info regarding motorcycles and scooters here soon, so I'll link to that when the time comes for anyone who's remotely interested.

Ride safe and thanks for everything,
Rusty

Sorry to lose you. Another good one bites the dust. Very sad really and thank you for your helpful and respectful contributions. I for one will miss you Rusty. Cheers!

Oh no! I am still fresh and learning so much from all of your posts! I hope this isn't the end even if it is in a limited manner... Best of luck!

While here, I'd started various threads to hammer out the details of some things, myself. A few that turned up some good info are...

• The 3-prong Attack: An Inquiry Into Increasing Horsepower
  
• Gearing: Horsepower's Better Half
  
• To CVT or not to CVT: Automatic VS Manual Transmissions in Motorcycles
  
• Torque VS Horsepower: In Layman's Terms
  
• Dyno-saur!: A Roaring Visual Collection of Torque/Horsepower Data
  
• Motorcycle Jeans: Kevlar, Dyneema, CE Armor; Oh My!
  
• The 600 Class: Streetbikes/Supersports Specs Comparison
  
• Make Your Own High Quality Passenger Handle Belt (Pix)
  
• Shift Point: Peak HP vs Redline

Some of the things I posted, I look back on and am like "I was obviously learning" but that's the fun part. All the research, debating, charts, real world tests, etc.

Good luck and God bless.
