I did some research.

Apparently, she was not alone, you cannot get in the the Chernobyl area without a goverment "guide".

She was not on a motorcycle but was in a car with her boyfriend and the "guide"

The pictures and the stories about people still living in the area are true, it is pretty much the "motorcycle" story that was made up.

Why she would make up a story does escape me. I think it would have been just as interesting if the truth of the journey was told.
