I've done that, and it helps but the foam has gotten kind of funky. Has anyone used any of the helmet sprays? Do they work as well as their labels suggest?  :nixweiss:

You could try Lysol  :) But then the fumes would probably get you too high to ride. ;D ;D

I haven't heard of any of the helmet liner sprays if they work, but I have heard of people using Fabreeze deodorizer spray.  I personally don't have any experience in any of them.  I found since I started wearing a "do-rag" I haven't had a problem with helmet odor anymore.

I would just hang it upside down on my front porch,,,, and let my friends that are smokers,, use it for an ash tray. :huepfenlol2:

then I'd go out and buy the smallest skimpiest novelty helmet I could find (oh, wait,  I already use one of those)
