I understand you're wanting to carry a 250lb motorcycle with your 2016 Infiniti Q50, but your vehicle is not rated for that much tongue weight which is why there's only class 1 hitches available.
To use your vehicle you'll need to pick up one of those class 1 hitches like the Curt # C11407, and then use it to tow a small trailer with your motorcycle. You'll also need a wiring harness # C56248 and a ball mount # C45521 with a 1-7/8" hitch ball # A-80.
While I know this isn't what you were hoping to hear, the only way you'd be able to use a motorcycle carrier is by using a different vehicle with a higher weight capacity.
