If you have nice, smooth roads, a little over max load won't hurt. But if you have lousy roads like we have where i live i'd "x" some of that weight. The stress will take its toll in due time. Yes we have seen some real overloads from some pics but the speeds we can attain put greater stress on the suspension and frame when going up and down through dips in the road.
