So you believe that your insurance company should decide what clothes you have to wear?

Cadman, your credibilty just sinks lower and lower. The bottom can't be far away. You are not even a funny joke anymore. And, I'm being totally serious here. Give it up!

He does have a point? If someone chooses to ride in shorts, flip flops, and t shirts and they get a bad case of road rash, why should the ins co have to pay for this risk choice? They are an adult, they know and accept the risk of riding in shorts and short sleeves. Why shouldn't they also assume all financial responsibility for their road rash? I'm surprised the ins cos haven't come up with this on their own! Sure would save them a lot of money on claims? Just asking?

You know I work for different companies and you have to let the insurance company know how much time your workers are on the road. For me that's with my Harley.
