That's an EA81 Subaru engine in there... No info given on the Flickr album I found it in regarding transmission etc.
Originally a BSA frame, 1.8L EA81 Subaru motor with modified intake. The speedometer is out of an EA81 series Subie, not sure on any of the other equipment.
Allegedly does 70mph at half throttle, and averages 50mpg.
The owner of the bike is purportedly a monk at St. Gregory's, a Benedictine monastery in Shawnee, OK

But seriously, pretty impressive feat of backyard engineering. And it would make an intriguing sidecar rig...
