Cruise Control RT models and Years?

[jawjaboy]

I'm in the process of researching R1100, R1150, and R1200 RT bikes to buy for a bucket list across USA trip coast to coast from Georgia and back. Being a flying brick owner/rider, '86 K75C, I'm not knowledgeable about the ends and outs of the R RT bikes.

What models and years of the above models have cruise control available so I can narrow my search down a bit.

Thank
Frank

For the older bikes that don't actually have electronic cruise controls, there is the Kaoko throttle lock https://www.cyclegear.com/parts/kaoko-throttle-lock (also recommended if you add handguards) and the Throttlemeister (no longer in business but can be found used) https://ridermagazine.com/2011/09/14/throttlemeister/

Cruise control was offered on the RT in 05, first year 1200 model. The 11 and 1150's didn't have it is what I've researched.

I believe cruise control has been standard on the RT since the 2005 R1200RT. If not standard, it is so common that you would have a hard time to find one without cruise. Usually will not find cruise on the RT-P (police) versions. I don't think it was even a factory option on the R1100 or R1150 models, but there are (were?) aftermarket kits.
