What year K1300GT to look for?

After having a K1100LT back in the 90's, I moved to a '02R1200GS and then on to a '05 R1200RT. After reading the improvement and weight loss compared to my previous K, I'm starting a search for a low mileage K1300GT in Ontario.
What year should I look for? 2011 or 2012 or 2013? ....or does it matter?
 
After 2011, I can't think of any changes that were not taken care of by recalls or campaigns.
 
K1300GT availability ended in the US with the 2010 model year, with the bikes only available as '09 and '10 models. Little if any difference between the two years and either represents significant improvement over the wedge-K K1200GT. The K1300S continued on through the 2016 model year.

Did K1300GT availability continue past 2010 in Canada and the EU?

Best,
DG
