Most European trailer hitches that I have seen come with a 75kg (circa
150lbs) tong weight restriction.  These are the ones with three M12
bolts per frame rail.   Most two bolt per frame rail hitches are
50kg.  So, when choosing a hitch, make sure that you have sufficient
load carrying capacity.  Personally I think 200lbs is going to be the
absolute limit of what you can carry.

Good luck on the project
- I'm considering getting a 250cc KTM but will more than likely trailer
it.

Cheers!
