Preliminary information indicates a 2004 Yamaha motorcycle was traveling northbound on Interstate 5 negotiating a right hand curve when the rider lost control. The motorcycle first struck four orange construction barrels and then a concrete barrier. The operator, William R LARSON, age 70, from Toledo, Washington was taken to Rogue Regional Medical Center by ambulance. LARSON was pronounced deceased upon his arrival at the hospital.
