Default Under leathers?

This may be a strange question but what do most people where under their leathers? I know I have enough room for a pair running shorts under my pants and a t-shirt under my jacket. Should I be wearing something else, something more... What should I try to get on under them?

If you've got good leathers than that's all you should need. The only thing that I would suggest if your jacket doesn't already have one is a back protector.

Generally I wear a T-Shirt and my boxers. Sometimes if at a track day I'll wear Patagonia long sleave shirt and pants. Similar to long underwear only not HOT. Mostly to wick sweat away.

I do have a good pair of leathers, but I just was wondering if i was doing anything wrong. I have a few pairs of underarmour shirts and what not, so that would help alot with sweat. Thanks for the replies...

The Underarmor might help a little with sweat, but it helps the most when you sweat your *** off in a one piece suit and have to take the soggy thing off...yep, it slips right off...without it you'll probably need a friend to help.

Underwear and t-shirt's all I wear...
