The collision happened at around 5:20 p.m. near Danforth Avenue and St Dunstan Drive, Toronto police said.
The rider was taken to a trauma centre with serious injuries, Toronto Paramedic Services said. His condition was later upgraded to non-life-threatening by police on Sunday morning. No other injuries were reported.
