Just to back up at least somewhat what the others said (which all makes sense):

http://www.honda.co.uk/owner/CRXManual/62SH200/3-8.pdf

It looks like there are about 1000 lbs. difference between curb weight and the
"maximum loaded weight," so I'd say the capacity is about 2 adults (at 175 lbs.
each) plus maybe 650 lbs., fairly evenly distributed.
