Default Trying to decide on a helmet

Well ever since i started riding sportbikes, guess its been about 4 years now, i've always just stuck with the cheap helmets, but after thinking about it and reading alot on these forums, i really need to upgrade to a nice, decent helmet. I know i can't go wrong with all the high dollar helmets (ie. shoei, arai, agv, suomy...) but to be honest with you i cant afford to spend 500+ on a helmet, atleast not right now. So on to my question, is there another brand that would be atleast close to as good as some of the high dollar helmets for cheaper? I know I know, this is one thing i shouldn't try to save money on, but i just figured at some point (price range) i stop paying for more protection, and start paying for name brand. More then anything i'm looking for a helmet that if and/or when i do crash my brain won't be turned to mush. Any suggestions?
