Pictures captured at the scene show the motorbike reduced to a pile of debris and left lying on its side in the middle of the intersection.

The force of the impact tore the front wheel free, which sat several metres away from the rest of the rest of the bike.

A Queensland Police Service spokesman said the forensic crash unit was investigating the incident.

Witnesses, particularly motorists with relevant dashcam footage, are urged to contact police.
