New To Helmets

If you're looking at 10's or 9's, you need a Snell SA rated helmet. DO NOT buy a Snell M rated helmet. From www.helmetcity.com :
What are the differences between snell SA and snell M standards?
SA Standard was designed for auto racing while M Standard was for motorcycling and other motorsports. There are three major differences between them:
1.SA standard requires flammability test while the M standard does not;
2.SA standard allows narrower visual field than M standard (Some SA helmets may not be street legal);
3.SA standard has rollbar impact test while M standard does not.

I have an Impact helmet and I like it. I bought it at a local place so I could try it on.

I have this one. http://www.helmetcity.com/page/HC/PROD/Impact-Helmets/IMP17500 Yeah, they're expensive!
