Rick, I am very familiar with those trailers. They are limited in how much weight they can carry (usually 60 Lbs) They are also built light weight for obvious reasons. The problem that I see would be the wheels, tyres, and bearings. They are rated for a very low speed. A fully laden touring bicycle would max out at 25mph going downhill. Anything over that would smoke the wheel bearings and blow the tyres. The Ninjette tends to be a bit faster. My recommendation would be to move the rear turn signals to the license plate bracket (the wires are long enough with some ccreative rerouting) This would allow you to carry larger saddle bags like Cortech. With a large tank bag and tail bag, you should be able to take a lot of stuff.
