79 cb 750k

I just acquired a 79 cb750, doesnt run. the previous owner said he was riding along and started to loose power, then it just died. Havent been able to get it to start. It has spark on all 4 wires and the pistons are moving, but it doesnt sound like it has any compression. just doesnt sound right no glub glub glub, just the starter. Was wondering if maybe a stuck valve or broken something to make either the intake or exaust valves not move, would cause these symptoms. any help would be appreaciated.
