It is believed the man crashed at high speed on a bend, hitting a tree and then a wooden fence. He suffered multiple injuries and received a blood transfusion but could not be revived.
"Our sympathies are with his family at this difficult time," Tipene said.
Road closures were in place around the crash site to allow the Serious Crash Unit to examine the scene.
A person who witnessed the scene shortly after the crash said they saw a motorbike leaning up against a lamppost, but they were unsure how the crash happened.
"It looked pretty bad, though."

Their 11-year-old brother, Isaac Morgan-Rangikataua, was the only survivor.
