So far I have contacted:
Dauntless
Classic Industries (Australia)
Bushtec

And looked at the Uni-go website.

No one it seems makes a hitch. Twice I was told that the K11LT would not work. The reason per Bushtec was the RS has more suspension travel.

Guess I need to examine an K11LT hitch to see what modifications if any could be made to make it work.

Is it true that the RS has more travel than the LT?

It is the same hitch for both bikes. I have one on my K1100LT and it was removed from an RS. Wheel travel is not an issue. I use an old Reynolds Hitch.
