The bike was in collision with a black Citroen C2 being driven by a 22 year-old man from the Eastbourne area.
The bike demolished a street bollard. The rider was thrown against a lamp post.
The injured rider was taken by ambulance to the Conquest Hospital with serious leg injuries.
Firefighters were later called to wash down the road.
