From what I was able to determine by checking the owner's manual of your 2016 Hyundai Sonata, they do not recommend trailer towing with this vehicle. This doesn't mean you absolutely cannot, but your best bet would be to consult with your local Hyundai dealership to determine what they recommend for your vehicle to make it possible. If you find out from them that you are able to tow a small trailer carrying your Harley, you'll need a hitch, wiring harness and ball mount with hitch ball to have a complete towing setup.
The Curt # C11402 and Reese Starter Ball Mount # RP7043000 would give you what you'll need to tow the trailer with a 1-1/4" hitch receiver and ball mount. You'll also need to install a wiring harness with the Curt T-Connector # C56247 which installs easily behind the drivers and passenger side tail light housings accessed through the trunk of your 2016 Hyundai Sonata.
