Two motorcycle riders have died in separate crashes on Victorian roads.

In the latest fatality, a rider died after he ran off the road and was thrown off his bike at Strath Creek, north of Melbourne, just after midday on Sunday.

Another male rider died after his motorbike crashed into a turning car at an intersection in Dandenong on Saturday night.

The driver, a 52-year-old woman, is assisting police.

The fatalities take Victoria's road toll to 202, four more than for the same time last year.
