Expert Reply:
For a trailer hitch that is a confirmed fit for your 2002 Volkswagen Cabrio, I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C11079. This trailer hitch has a 2,000 lb gross trailer weight and 200 lb tongue weight rating. Therefore, you would need to tow the motorbike instead of carrying it on the hitch.
In order to complete your towing setup you will also need a trailer wiring harness, the Curt Circuit Protected Converter part # C56175, a ball mount, the Curt Class II Drawbar part # C45510, and a hitch ball, the part # A-80 or part # A-82. This will then give you everything that you need to tow your motorbike.
