Motorcycles and humidity (2013, insurance, how much)

[l8rgator]

I have 2 odd questions for ya.

1. Can anyone share how much they pay for motorcycle insurance?

2. Can anyone that has a humidity gauge inSIDE their house tell me what the humidity is this time of year? We are moving to Florida FOR the humidity (medical issue with my eye) and I want to see how much humidity that air conditioners suck out of the air inside. Also what temp do you set your ac at?

Usually the local weather report will give you daily humidity numbers.
People tend to set their thermostats to whatever temperature they feel comfortable with, my Dad for example likes to set the thermostat to 80 degrees while i prefer 65 degrees,how much humidity does a normal A/C unit take out of the air? Much reading resources available=

Seems a major move to sell up and move everything to Florida just for the humidity,have you tried a humidifier or two in current local?
As for Florida motorcycle insurance? its all over the place and depends on type of bike,past driving history and medical criteria, best bet would be to talk with insurance agents to derive the best coverage for your particular situation.=

We set the a/c daytime to 79. Our inside humidity is running in the upper 30s to low 40s. However, it's been relatively dry outside as well, with our outdoor humidity running in the 40s in the daytime this past week. Higher humidity due here soon.

We didn't bring our motorcycles to FL but when we had them in AZ we got a good deal with Progressive (we had our auto with them, too).

Our house is about 60% this time of year. We keep our programmable thermostat at 76 degrees during the day and 74 degrees at night.

I regulate my garage where I keep the cars to 40-45% with a humidifier. That is what I recommend for your bike.

I pay about $55 a month full coverage (300k/100k) Stacked for a 2013 Triumph Tbird. Clean driving record.

Thanks all comma very helpful. We do have humidifiers everywhere, like 6 of them. One is hooked up to my refrigerator line so it runs full blast 24/7. It creates a lot of mold, but not a whole lot of comfort. Even with those in winter I topped out at about 32% on average

Air conditioners are designed to pull water out of the air. It's part of the process. Air with less water is much easier to cool and also much more comfortable.

Florida will give you the humidity you desire outdoors. However, if you bring your humidity levels too high, you will potentially introduce mold into the home. 55% Relative Humidity is about as high as you'll want to go.

You might be better off with a less humid outdoor environment and during cooler seasons just add a humidifier. But again, you'll need to closely monitor relative humidity.

Yes, too high humidity indoors and you will get mold. It can become toxic and very expensive to remove.
