He was identified as 38-year-old Jessie Lee Stacy of Waikoloa.
Officers responding to a 5:16 p.m. call determined that a white 2018 Nissan Altima driven by a 61-year-old California man made a left turn from Waikoloa Road onto Uluwehi Street and collided with a westbound (makai-bound) blue 2001 Harley-Davidson motorcycle.
Stacey was taken to North Hawaii Community Hospital, where he was listed in critical condition. He was later airlifted for further treatment to the Queens Medical Center in Honolulu, where he later died Sunday.
The driver of the Nissan and a 60-year-old woman passenger in the sedan were not injured in the collision.
