    You can try looking for OEM decal replicas, if you can't find the info anywhere else. If it had a rated tow capacity, it probably had a decal near the hitch.

    Pretty sure its basically the same as a ATC200, its been years since i have seen one in person but i recall the hitch having a decal on it that had the rated capacities. I want to say its something like 700lbs rated towing capacity and 120lbs drawbar weight... But thes are just from the fuzzy confines of my memory.

    Just so you know, I knew a guy who thought he could load up his 16ft trailer with firewood and haul it with his 300cc Honda 4 wheeler, he got up to speed on a dirt road and it began to fishtail, at about 15/20 mph, it jackknifed and put him, the bike and trailer in the ditch, totaled the atv, put him in the hospital for a week. broken arm and collar bone. Now this guy was stupid.

    As a rule I try not to pull more than I can stop, I let my brakes be the threshold of safety.
    If the bike weights 350lbs I would not want to pull more than double that, say 750 lbs. that may be to conservative
    but I am not as young as I use to be. You would be asking your factory braking system to stop 3 times what it is designed for.

    Just something to consider.
