How often do you wash your helmet?

[mentalboy]

EDIT Fiddlesticks: It left out

Only if there's something particularly vile in there, but otherwise never.

I just give it a wipe with a babywipe to get the insects off it.

I've yet to wash the inserts.

Never wash the inside, use a balaclava style thing all year round though [thicker one in winter] last few years to reduce sweat/hair grease.

Externally whenever the visor gets mucky enough to be a nuisance when riding, but i often ride with it up anyway so... Once a month probably.

Same for my leathers - never wash them. The sweat odour helps alert cagers to my road position, ''sweaty suits save lives''

Helmet? I give it a clean when it looks abit grubby
The Visor on the other hand, pretty much every time I take the bike out I'm cleaning the visor before riding.

Visor -- just about daily
Inside padding/inserts -- when they smell, I take them out and put them through the washing machine, then air dry. I've only done it a few times in the two years I've had this lid, but I'm washing them this weekend. The hot summer has taken its toll.

Erm... cant remember ever cleaning it

[Tungtvann]

I'll clean the flies off it every time. If there are no flies, there's nothing to clean!

[stinkwheel]

Never.

If it's raining it gets a wash.

The missus always asks, can you even see out of that, because it's a touch mucky. I can see fine, so whenever it hinders me, I'll clean it.

But the missus has a white helmet for pillion so whenever she cleans hers I'll just pop my helmet next to her and when I return it's magically clean!
