I am considering buying a 1981 CB750 Custom.  Appears to be in good shape.  I have no information about these bikes.  I have owned: 1982 KZ 550LTD,1996  Vulcan 750, 2000Kawasaki W650 (shoulda kept it), 2004 Ninja 500, 2007 Ninja 650.  Hoping you could help with answer some questions:
1.  Are they a high-maintenance bike for any particular reason?
2.  Overall performance (acceleration, handling)?  I'd like to have a bike that performs about as well as my Ninja 650 did.
3.  Any particular issues to check when buying such a bike?

Thanks,
