What kind of trailer is it? It a custom, or a specific brand? If its a specific brand I would contact the manufacturer.
That being said... I would never recommend pulling a trailer with a motorcycle. I did it for a few years and learned just how dangerous they can be. Your stopping distance is dramatically increased, your acceleration is decreased, and what happens if the trailer blows a tire? Also what happens when the trailer gets bouncing, or going "squirly"? What happens if the trailer flips going around a corner?
If you must pull a trailer get one with air-adjustable suspension to reducing bouncing, and a 360-degree swivel hitch to keep you from flipping if the trailer flips.
A trailer behind a motorcycle scares the crud out of me. I'd try other options if at all possible.
