Since Suzuki has released knowledge of these helmets, has anyone heard anything on how to purchase one in the U.S.? So far I can only find that 30 are being put up for a loto in Japan.

get a hold of Arai

I did and the marketing person between Aria and Suzuki. They have no answer and suggested I talk with local dealer. I contacted 2 dealers which contacted their Suzuki Rep. The Rep explained he had no information regarding these helmets that they have not been told about them. So I messaged Suzuki Global No response. Then called Suzuki customer service U.S.. they took my number and said they would find out some information foe me and call back. Never got a call back it's been a week...

Sounds like you're a month too late. See this. If you follow some of the links, it takes you to this. Perhaps they will respond to a query.

BillV Thank you very much. As I understood it that was for the 30 sent to Japan. At the end of January they held a loto to get rights to purchase one of those 30. The U.S. market was to contact local dealer to inquire. The other 70 where supposed to go out after Japan released theirs.
I did contact 2 dealers and they contacted their Suzuki Rep, what was told to them was Suzuki did not inform them of the helmets. I contacted Arai, someone in marketing, Global Suzuki, the designer of the helmets, and Suzuki Customer service. I couldn't tell you how much time has been spent between finding a 21 GSXR1000R Anniversary Edition and trying to get information on purchasing one of these beautiful Helmets. The only one I have seen for sale was one from Japan. And that is all I can find since December 21st. I do appreciate your help and I did leave another message on the page you shared with me. I will continue to keep my fingers crossed.

I messaged Arai and they referred me to Suzuki again.

^You could also try emailing Simon Hancocks, the author of the VisorDown article on the helmet, saying something along the lines of "What gives? I can't find any info about the worldwide release of this helmet. Where did you get your information? Arai refers my inquires to Suzuki and they won't respond. Is this some sort of promotional scam by Suzuki?"
