West Yorkshire Police are appealing for information following a serious injury collision involving a motorbike and a parked car in Leeds.

It happened at about 1.30pm yesterday (Friday) in Raynville Road, Bramley, outside Premier Pizza.

The 24-year-old male rider of the motorbike, which is described as an off-road bike, was taken to hospital with serious injuries.

Officers would also like to hear from anyone who witnessed or who has CCTV of the collision or the movements of the bike prior to it.

The bike, which had been removed before officers arrived on scene, was travelling towards Waterloo Lane at the time of the collision.

It remains outstanding at this time and officers would like to hear from anyone who may be able to assist with information in tracing it.

Officers have also issued a warning that the motorbike may be dangerous to ride in its current condition and could cause further injury if used.

Detective Inspector Paul Conroy of West Yorkshire Police’s Major Collision Enquiry Team said: “We would urge anyone who witnessed this collision or who has video footage to get in contact with us.

“I’m also concerned that this motorbike is dangerous to ride in its current condition and could cause further serious harm if it were to be used again without being properly repaired.”

If you can assist then please contact the Roads Policing Unit on 101, or by using the livechat facility at online, quoting log reference 0823 of 26 January.
