It has 24 miles since restoration, just enough miles to sort things out. The 1st year 1968 Cobra was only produced 1 year after Ford Motor complained about the use of the word "Cobra", the model continued as the 500 Titan with changes to the tank, colors and carburetors. The bike was also unique because no one had been able to produce a reliable big bore 2 stroke because mixing gas and oil couldn't provide enough lubrication with the large cylinders, one of the reasons that Kawasaki produced 3 cylinder machines. You also didn't need to mix gas and oil which meant for a cleaner burning and less smoking 2 stroke.
