True.

Besides the liner issue it is a quality lid.

I've had three and wouldn't hesitate to buy another if I needed a new lid.

Don't know about you guys, but I've never needed to wash the inside of my helmet. The outside is a different story I love my RF-1000. It may not cost $700, but it's a great helmet.

Anymore, I think I prefer a non-removable liner. one less thing to get messed up up if the velcro on my gloves stick!

Guess you guys like skanky liners. Washing it ain't that difficult.

THIS! I washed my liner once at the end of last season. Nothing changed. And it definitely doesn't stink.
