Those look like the old "Moon Eyes" stickers they used to put on hot rods over here in the 1950's and 60's. There definately is a resemblance though!

Looks more like John Cooper's bike, as I remember it Funny you should mention that.........Motorcycling legend Giacomo Agostini will take to the UK's Mallory Park race track at the Vintage Motor Cycle Club's Festival of 1000 Bikes on the 12th-13th July. The 15-times grand prix world champion and 10 times TT winner returns to the circuit where he was beaten by local motorcycle racer John Cooper back in 1971 at the Race of the Year. Cooper will also attend the Vintage event and will be bringing along the BSA Rocket 3 which he beat Agostini on all those years ago. A plethora of riders from yesteryear will join the dueling pair on track for the Stars Parade which forms the highlight of the Festival.

Met John Cooper when staying at the same hotel as him in the early 70's. Nice bloke. had, I believe broken his legs after a crash and I think his career was effectively over .
