Expert Reply:
The Curt Trailer Hitch # 13015 is a confirmed fit for your 2001 Dodge van with a standard bumper, and will work well with an motorcycle carrier like the etrailer Motorcycle Carrier # e98873. The motorcycle carrier has a weight capacity of 500 pounds.
Keep in mind you will want the carrier weight and the weight of your motorcycle to stay within the tongue weight limits for your hitch receiver and your vehicle.
You may also want to check out part # e98882. This lock is perfect for keeping your carrier locked securely to your hitch.
