Umm, never heard of Simpson helmets, but my suggestion would be go with a good reputable name brand.
HJC, GMAX, Shark, CKX Arai, Bell,
Those are just some examples, personally, I own a CKX RR750 in black, ECE rating, lightest helmet on the market, and it looks alright, i just ordered a tinted visor for it as well,

I agree with curtisp, stick to one of the brands that markets to motorcyclists. Simpson helmets are very high end and are marketed to auto racers. Auto racing and motorcycling are two very different enviroments for crash helmets. I would not buy a new helmet without reading the Motorcyclist magazine article on helmet standards. It is very informative. The article appeared in the magazine in 2005, but is available on their website.

I would really recommend the Shoei RF-1000. It has a lot of race-style helmet features for the money.
