Looks like a homebuilt kit style bike like the ones advertised in Popular Mechanix type mags or maybe offered as basic models by the factory built minibike manufacturers?.

My pal and I built one similar to this as kids w/ an old McCullough 5Hp 2-Stroke motor!.
Wild power for the bike but luckily the cen-clutch driven gear was a slightly different pitch than the chain so it would always fly off before we got going too fast to kill ourselves!.
