I want a cheap, easy and effective way to clean the inside of my helmet without making it soaking wet. Any ideas?

Buy an aerosol of spray-on vacuum-off upholstery cleaner and use that. Available either at furniture store, or car parts shop.

unless there is some new miracle product on the market, there is only 1 way to clean the inside of ur lid and unfortnately this gets it wet!
if the lining comes out you can put it somewhere warm to dry but if not take the visor off and open the vents. put the lid upside down in the shower and soak it with warm water then rub a bit of baby shampoo in it. rinse it till the water runs clear then stick the lid in the airing cupboard till its dry

I am sorry.
This has been a quest of mine for 20 years.
The best I have come up with is...
wear a balaclava at all times and never pur your helmet on if you are wearing gel or some other hair product ( especially if you have just been to the barbers ). apart from that the only things I can suggest is...
if you want to stop it smelling , use 'febrese'
but if the only way to get rid of the 'sticky' replace your lid.

most newer helmets have removable liners. If yours does, I would use some gentle soap and water to wash it.
Some guys use baby shampoo/water and a washcloth and wipe the liner down if it is not removable.
At some point, I go buy a new helmet (look for one w/ removable liner) and if you really like the way the helmet feels, buy replacement liners and put them away until you want to change them.

Yes, use this method.
Use Miracle II soap and water. You can buy it at the link below.
