A MAN was incinerated when his motorcycle caught fire while he was apparently tending to it at the side of the road, police say.

Perth police said the 52-year-old man had pulled over to the side of Albany Highway at Kelmscott, in the city's south-east, about 2.30pm (WST) today.

Witnesses said he appeared to be checking his bike when it caught fire and engulfed him in flames.

A police spokesman said the man died at the scene.

Appeared to be a bike with a hotdog style horizontal muffler. Maybe a W650 or Triumph or something. Didnt get a real good look at the bike it was on the news.
