Stinky helmet

[terryjhaynesMember]

Any one got, or know of any good ways off freshening up a sweaty, sour smelling helmet???:sick:

[Matt BakerMember]

Pull the liner out and put it in the washing machine? :whistle:

Buy a new helmet with a removable liner and then throw it in the washing machine.

I had a helmet in 2004 that I wore to Cape York. I had shaved my head, it was Oct and stinking hot. We drank our weight in piss every-night and sweat all the next day. Driving home around Roma the smell got to us and we stopped, pulled the car apart to find the smell. It turned out it was my helmet :sick: threw it in a road side bin and drove home :laugh: Never bought a helmet without a removable since

Yeh! I tryed that ,but most of the lining is stuck in,may be I’l just take the thing in the shower n give it a suds up.

[terryjhaynesMember]

OK new helmet eh! Rego this month,so that will have to come first.

[Matt BakerMember]

No removable liner hey, that sucks even my old crappy rjays had one.

Take it in the shower and use shampoo on the inside

I thought this was going to be a 4skin joke 😆

I occasionally hose mine out and put it in the sun to dry shiny side up so the excess can drip out

After you wash the helmet and it’s completely dry get some of this stuff from Coles, Woolies or a chemist and spray a small amount in it. I use it in my boots as well.

After a hot sweaty ride grab some old news papers and pack it in your helmet and boots to soak up the sweat as much as possible and use the spary the next morning.

Sneeker treater eh! Sounds like the go:cheer: ,,,thanks for that Mal. AH! the “old bull tree of knowledge”comes through once again:)

I’m not joking about the shampoo, it really does work.

Yeh! I’l be giving it a good suds up,as well as the stink remover after it dry’s;)

[glennMember]

seriously

best remidy

rub vegimite on the chin piece before your ride next,,I know it sounds like bullshit but it really works, apparently its the yeast extract that absorbs the odours, we use it in the medical industry all the time.

please post up the results following your next ride,, you will be amazed at the outcome..

Cheers
