I didn't see a gear section and if I missed it, my apologies. But I have a cheap boot dryer that my helmet fit perfectly. Weather in the mid 90's with high humidity gets my helmet soaked. This worked great.

 

I reckon this is as good as any. I got 90 minutes of sleep last night so maybe another MOD may move it.

But in the meantime..........nvr saw anything like that.

NICE idea. Being in S. Florida, I sweat and soak the inside a lot. I just bring the helmet inside the house and it dries right out.

Why else would it be wet? Hanging it on the bike upside down and it rains?

Washing it......u take the insides out. 'juss wondering how often people helmet gets wet on the inside.

Tho it is a GOOD idea, the boot dryer. I like the ingenuity.

 

Soaked from sweat. It sat inside overnight and was still damp the next day. I'm not a profuse sweater but an hour in 102 heat index had it soaked.
I happened to walk in the room with my boot dryer and said hmmmm this may work.

 

Gd point. I almost said in my post above, being in FL, the AC is on ALL the time. So moisture is sucked right outta the air swiftly. The sweat soaked inners dry REALLY well.

Likely or clearly not so much in any of the more northern type locations.

Gd point.

 

But now your helmet smells like feet....

Seriously, not a bad idea at all...

 

This thread has been up for a week or so.
Hey OP, drying a helmet liner is great thing, your dryer is awesome.

Me?
I don't use a dryer, yet I will take a dry rag and wipe the inside to "soak up" some sweat if need be.
And ever so often I will take some foaming carpet cleaner and clean the liner.
Lastly when storing, I have taken some crumpled newspaper and placed in the helmet, may help absorb residue moisture & odors.

Well then, the replies have been a bit meager I would say.

Wait a moment. I have to look up the word meager. I nvr used that word before.
.Yes, meager was right. (Phew.....)

I would say, take a wet lid, pop it into a preheated oven at 350 deg for 45 minutes. If the lid is a Large or X-Tra large then 375 deg. for 1H 10 minutes.

Take out and put on cooking rack.

After 30 minutes, sniff the inside of the lid. If it smells dank, put it back into the oven for 15 minutes.

If it smells toasty warm, you are good to go.

Bonus: Put a few drops of vanilla essential oils in the lid to add that extra ahhhh when you will have a bitch behind you to gaurranty getting lad.

FAQ's:

Q: What if you have a SENA?
A: No worries. They are made to tolerate high heat.

Q: What if you have a Go Pro.
A: If you have a Go Pro, just cover it with a standard Zip Lock bag and tighten the zippy part closed the best you can. That should work perfectly. There is no reason to take a Go Pro off at 375 deg's. Don't be a sissy.

Q: How about stickers 'n stuff.
A: ALL stickers are heat resistant unless it is a pink sticker (excluding the ta-ta's) or if the sticker has a faggish saying. Oh wait, I can't say faggish. Ummmm a gay saying. Anything gayish has to be removed and thrown away never to be replaced again.

Q: Will the helmet shrink or warp?
A: No, if it is a good quality DOT'd lid. Any of those fibber pieces of sh*t or a thin fake lid which is worthless to wear and you aren't fooling anyone, yes, those can warp but they will not shrink. If you put the lid back on and it feels tighter than usual, that is simply bcs you found a brilliant way to dry our lid and your head is swelling with ego.

A cheap 8" desk fan works too. Just lay it on the side. Standard gear for a trackday.

 

my liner comes out, wash by hand, wring it out and usually set it in the sun for a half hour and it's nice and fresh

this is a good idea for airing out the whole helmet thought
