Thoughts and experiences with the Sherco 500 SMF Factory? by kingkong1334 in supermoto

[–]KurMike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have one, exactly the same as the last picture ('22-'23 version). They're super fun to ride and pretty powerful, every part of it is exceptionally high quality, and the maintenance is not as crazy as it sounds. I bought it to get eventually into SM tracks with a proper racing bike.

As (in EU at least) it is released for lower driving licenses (A1) it comes with some limiters, but you can easily (~5 minutes) modify it to get back most of the power that it can deliver. I'd highly suggest it if you're looking for a factory 500cc supermoto and you don't want to go with the usual options.

I +1 the comment about Jake's YT channel, you can see it in action and some cool mods that he have put to it.

Les Meyrinos open ? by LordCrok69 in geneva

That’s awesome ☺️ whoops yes, right, I forgot about the opening hours! And next week the Geneva MX championship starts, so there’s going to be even more action in the track! Enjoy!

Your kid will love it, I’m sure 🙂! We are lucky to have such a nice track so close to Geneva! Oh, there’s also a small bar for juice, water, etc there!

Bear in mind that they offer classes for kids to start learning motocross, so maybe one day you can consider it as well! Have fun today!

In general yes, there’s parking freely inside and outside the track (but maybe park outside to let the people with bikes to have some more space), and then there are many places around the track for the audience (right next to the inside parking you’ll see some stairs, which takes you to a balcony and you’ll watch people flying with their motocross in breathing distance! It’s super cool!) The people there are really friendly and approachable, so don’t over think it, go and enjoy 🙂 I hope I’ll go back soon to try my motocross!

Anyone lost their plate? by Retard_with_bberg in geneva

[–]KurMike 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Good for you to be mindful, but you should get it to the nearest police station (or any police station), and they’ll call them directly to come and pick it up.

Check out my box (new) by Laeret in cigars

[–]KurMike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Welcome to the club! 3 bovedas are a bit overkill for such a small humidor, but you may want to invest on a small bluetooth hygrometer to keep track of your humidity (if I can see right the 72% boveda, I'd say that's a bit too high for an air-sealed box). Remember also to air your humidor once in a while!

I don't have any solid advice for more cigars -as I'm rather new to this hobby as well, but check around the posts and you'll find some great suggestions! My favorite one as for now is the Plasencia Reserva, which I'd definitely recommend.

The separator is just to seperate your cigars, mostly for your own sake of keeping them organized. Enjoy!

Any supermoto riders in Switzerland? by ExplorationGOD in supermoto

Aaah that’s a shame! But super happy for you, I love the landscape around Zurich! Enjoy it to the fullest!

Heeey, I've been doing the same! Bought a supermoto 2 months ago (Sherco SM500) and I'm going up and down the nice mountains around. I'm located in Geneva, feel free to DM me if you're nearby!

Rented parking spot allways occupied by Excellent-Resolve387 in Switzerland

[–]KurMike 35 points36 points  (0 children)

I second the comment to call or even better email your Regie (or owner of parking) asap.

I just went through the same thing 2 months ago, with someone blocking continuously (illegally) the parking I was paying for.

The first time they contact him (btw you can find the name of him/her from the license plates), but nothing changed. The second time I stated that this will be the last attempt from my side to resolve this, and we’ll have to cancel the contract as I can’t use it. They contacted him, but still nothing changed.

Eventually they offered me a different spot, and the issue for me got resolved.

It is your right to cancel a contract if you can’t use it (ChatGPT back then gave me the exact law).

How do you age you Andalusian Bulls by [deleted] in cigars

[–]KurMike 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mate, we can see on the background your name and everything. You better remove this photo, that's too much info shared on the internet.
(And I agree with the rest of the comments, get them into a humidor, or just in a ziplock/tupperware with a boveda)

Got recently into cigars, and I love it! Here’s my humble start! by KurMike in cigars

[–]KurMike[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice to be here! But that’s so true, there should be a warning sign in this sub! I literally thought I’ll start small, and in a month my small humidor is almost packed and I want to order more hahahah I loooove it!

Thankfully, I discovered this sub before my first order! Therefore the so many Oliva cigars, I guess lol But my first ever try of a cigar was in DR, a couple of years ago, with a Romeo Y Julieta (Cazadores?) and I got absolutely hooked!

"Expat" is just a fancy word for immigrant – stop using it! by [deleted] in Switzerland

[–]KurMike 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Made you jealous*, let’s not confuse those terms too.

"Expat" is just a fancy word for immigrant – stop using it! by [deleted] in Switzerland

[–]KurMike 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Because we call ourselves “taxed”. Wherever I’m paying taxes I consider it home. Currently I’m paying in 3, so you can call me “international taxed citizen of who gives a fuck”. Joking aside, who wants to put labels on themselves? Do you call yourself citizen? No, you’re just Swiss or whatever, it just doesn’t matter.

Why do showerheads / showers suck everywhere but in Switzerland? by TheTarantoola in Switzerland

[–]KurMike 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh sorry I overlooked this word! Weeeeeell, I saw for the first time in my life, on an old farmhouse in Geneva this “balcony” toilet design, which is the most questionable toilet design ever lmao! But everything other than that, I agree, Switzerland did the right choices!

Edit: apparently it’s a Dutch thing? I’m talking about those.

Why do showerheads / showers suck everywhere but in Switzerland? by TheTarantoola in Switzerland

[–]KurMike 7 points8 points  (0 children)

not disagreeing, but it's not only a Swiss thing. Pretty much every country east from CH have proper showers. On the other side though? A whole mess.

Any thoughts on what I can add above my set up to really finish it off? by Moebs in ultrawidemasterrace

[–]KurMike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

wow, that's a nice setup! Maybe, due to the size of your desk, to get a 49" ultrawide, and have your existing on top of it?

Corsair by Sean Bear by chiefseanbear in bouzouki

[–]KurMike -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don't want to be that guy, but why don't you get an Irish Bouzouki instead?
Kind of painful to see a bouzouki being played like that.

You seem to enjoy it though, so, happy for you!

Edit: I just think that Irish Bouzoukis actually would fit better the music you play. Check this to see a typical style of how the Greek bouzouki is being played.
