I recently purchased a moldable mouthguard. Football equipment aisle at Academy Sports & Outdoors, $5.00 U.S. I molded it after soaking in boiling water, then cut off the strap so it's compact enough to fit in my mouth under the helmet. I wear it under my SHOEI RF-1000. Keeps my mouth from drying out while riding, and keeps me from grinding my teeth, not to mention the added protection in case of a get-off. Full-face helmet, earplugs, jacket and gloves, and a mouthguard. Now, if I could only get some Sliders, or leather pants, or other such protection for below the waist.....

As to dry mouth, I sing when I ride. Makes people look, makes me laugh. I laugh, I drool, and dry mouth isn't a problem. As to protection (?) below the waist, you can check this out. Bohn I was interested in their under-the-jeans armor and sent them an email. I was curious if their armor had a front closure for those times when one has to "make one's water" or if they are like industrial pantyhose. They don't, and they weren't amused.. If that doesn't matter to you - it's an option...

What if you have an accident & that mouthguard ends up blocking your air-way?
we should do this every weekend!

These jeans are on my wish list: http://www.gussetclothing.com/defend.htmlMade in the good ol' USA and you have the option of requesting a custom waist size using your favorite jeans as a model. http://www.gussetjeans.com/correct_fit

 I do this too... or sometimes I whistle songs... but only when wearing my full-face helmet.
I know I clinch my teeth at times. I can see how a mouth guard would help with that.
