I believe there are more and/or larger diameter tubing in the overhead area of the fuselage in addition to the reinforcements in the wing.   Be careful to consider all the differences before you increase the gross weight.   I remember seeing someone post a detailed list of the difference between models, try the archives.

There  was a time in early 1992, when the tech guys at Denney Aerocraft would  discuss modding the 1050 to a 1200. I discussed it with one of them at  length.  The recommendations included changing to spring gear, the larger  diameter lift struts that came with the 1200, addition of a lower lift strut  carry-thru rectangular tube paralleled with the existing carry-thru. Their  recommendations for this added carry-thru were very specific.  He also  suggested that one might put triangular webbing of plywood inside the triangles  of tubing behind the seat.  There was no mention of a beefier upper  carry-thru tube. There was no mention of any changes to the wing structure. I  took really detailed notes, but I cannot share them. I

  

 Now,  this was one of two discussions I had with one of the tech guys. I won't mention  his name, but you old guys will remember him well.  It wasn't long after  Skystar took over that they would no longer discuss it.   The best  advice I can give you is to fly it as it was designed. I have no idea if the  suggestions I was given would be safe.
