The rider, a 29-year-old Canadian man, recorded a blood alcohol reading of 0.100 – double the legal limit.

He was arrested and charged with drink driving and issued with a six-month instant loss of licence.  He appeared in the Adelaide Magistrates Court later today.

The motorcycle was towed from the scene and impounded for 28 days.
