Emergency services were called to the scene in London Road, near the Shell service station, at around 8pm but despite their efforts, the male motorcyclist was pronounced dead at the scene.
A spokesperson for Gloucestershire Police said: “Police would like to thank the members of the public who conducted CPR before the emergency services arrived at the scene for their efforts.
“Officers investigating the collision are keen to hear from anyone who may have relevant dashcam footage or who witnessed the incident and have not yet spoken to police.
“Officers would especially like to talk to to anyone who may have seen either the red Piaggio Vespa travelling the A417 in the Fairford area or the food delivery van in the Lechlade area.
“Anyone with information is asked to call police on 101 and quote incident 482 of August 15.”
