Sergeant Andrew Trotter of Edinburgh city road policing, said: "We are appealing for anyone who may have information and who has not already come forward to do so.
"We are keen to speak to anyone who witnessed the crash, anyone who may have dashcam footage or anyone who has seen the motorcycle around the time of the incident to get in touch."
