Schwinn Sting-ray inspired Motorcycle | 1978 Yamaha XS650 by Motorelic

One of the most recognizable bicycles of all time just hit its growth spurt thanks to Sean Skinner at Motorelic. Sean started this project back in 2016 by creating a custom frame. Then he found a re-phased 1978 Yamaha XS650 engine and went from there. We caught up with him at Mama Tried 2022 to get a closer look at the finished product.
