Police say the motorcycle went out of control near the entrance to Goddard State Park on Ives Road just after 1 a.m. It crossed the double yellow line before striking the tree.
The 26-year-old driver from Webster was pronounced dead at Kent Hospital.
The 21-year-old passenger, who police say was wearing a helmet, suffered only minor injuries.
Their names have not been released.
Police say alcohol and speed may have played a role in the crash.
