As an American, I would say this in a slightly different way: The designated weight limit for the tailgate of a Ford F-150 truck is set at 600 pounds officially. Although some users claim to have successfully placed items exceeding 800 pounds on it, surpassing the limit may pose a risk of causing damage to the vehicle. While you should be able to easily load almost any ATV or dirt bike into the truck bed due to the capacity, it is advisable to be cautious with heavier motorcycles.
I added a ramp to my 2014 pickup truck and have driven my 600-pound ATV up and down it several times. With me onboard, the total weight is 800 pounds. I feel confident that I could safely handle even more weight without any concerns.
The Ford F-150 tailgate is capable of supporting around 600 pounds of weight.
