Has anyone found anything commercially or home remedy for stinky helmet? Just returned from a long HOT trip and I went to get my helmet from the tour pac and it smelled like a locker room. PLEASE HELP?

 

Pull the liner out and wash it.

 

Shampoo! (Only kidding) The liner has got to come out. That needs the shampoo!

If you can't get it out, Febreeze it heavily and let it air outside for awhile.

 

just let it sit in the open air, either with a dryer sheet inside or a few sprays of febreeze odor eliminator (not air freshener)

 

MotoRex helmet care. It's both shampoo for the liner and cleaner for the exterior.

I choose to rinse out the liner after shampoo, but that's just me...

 

Take a sock and put baking soda in it. Place the sock inside the helmet and place the helmet in a plastic shopping bag. Tie it off and let work (maybe).
Good Luck.

 

Wear a bandana or skull cap between you and your helmet and you won't have that problem.
Not wearing something to keep your head funk off your helmet liner is kinda gross. My opinion of course. It's like wearing the same pair of socks for a year.

Sounds like you got the Funk going.. Baking soda sounds good..I always wear my Pirate bandanna and dont have that trouble...

 

I don't see the problem about the socks for a year thang!!! I thought everyone did that!
I agree tho.....too many really thin bandanas and skull caps avaliable. OTOH, my helmet liners to come out for washing with mild soap ifn i needs it!!

Thanks for all the thoughts. My liner does not come out. Therefore the Frabreeze odor eliminator sounds good to me.
Wear one everywhere I go. Always make sure it is a good one. I even have a welders hat that is double cloth. I just sweat really heavy.
