Hello Cabe memebers! I am new here and would appreciate some help identifying this bike I bought a few years ago. It has no nameplates or badges, the bottom bracket looks to read D44765. I’ve posted some pictures below, if you’d like any specific photos or anything just let me know. Any help identifying this thing is greatly appreciated.

Welcome to the Cabe Dylan, your bike is what's known as a "motorbike", they made them to look like the motorcycles, for the kids, back then. Here is a similar one, decked out. Tanks & racks were an option. Westfield had acquired a lot of other bike manufacturers, yours could of had any number of different badges. The rear drop outs on your bike are kind of unique, the rack looks later. Good luck & have fun w/ it.

Like others have indicated, it is a 1926-D Westfield built ~19" motorbike, with Columbia-style chain tensioners.
The hairpin truss-fork is similar to those used on some Westfield-built "Indian" motorbikes (although the sprocket is not).
We see that the old 28" steel-clad wood wheels were replaced with 26" Lightweights (597mm); and the rear rack also appears newer.
The bike would look nice in bright red and some repro/NOS "Indian" decals, and maybe new 28" (622mm) aluminum wheels.
