Hi Craig,
My scope weighs in at about 8kg with an EP, but it's a bit shorter than yours at f/6.5 (830mm). I know of some people using this mount with a 6" refractor who are happy. I also know of people who would staunchly recommend a much larger mount for a 6" refractor (minimum EQ6). It's a bit of a topic for hot debate. For visual, I think a 6" would give you focus shake on the EXOS2. Dampening times could be assisted with vibration suppression pads. You're welcome to bring your scope over to have a try if you're keen. That would be the ultimate test.
