I don't know the make but the 3 bolt flangette style bearing on the jack shaft is very uncommon on a mini bike. /more pictures would help.

I agree with the fork thing, and it just seems that the bends are not crisp enough to be factory. I would just change the forks, and scoot the seat back a bit and it would be a nice mini.

it might look something like this when i am done.
10hp engine, custom front shocks, bike shock for seat, straight pipe with removable muffler, lights hooked up to battery charged by bike generator hooked to clutch, bigger wheels, ect.
it will be pretty cool when its done.
