The 44-year-old victim from Greenwood Lake was headed north on Route 1 when a gray-colored SUV apparently caused him to lose control of his 2004 Suzuki near the Dunkin Donuts shortly before 2:30 p.m., Capt. Ricky Mirkovic said.
The motorcyclist was taken to Hackensack University Medical Center with what turned out to be moderate injuries after Fort Lee police and EMS responded, Mirkovic said. All traffic was detoured to local streets.
Meanwhile, police were looking for the SUV.
Anyone who might have witnessed the crash, or has information that could help identify the vehicle or its driver, is asked to contact Fort Lee police: (201) 592-3515.
