Chris, with the 6" scope and accessories that you mentioned, any mount from the Skywatcher HEQ5 Pro Go To [13.7kg rating] or equivalent in other brands will easily meet your requirements. The Losmandy G8 will
therefore be fine. The only possible consideration is whether you might
want to upsize your scope in the foreseeable future, in which case it
would make economic sense to buy a heavier duty mount now rather than later.
