That is a good bike to learn on. It isn't too powerful, and was considered one of the best handling japanese bikes when it came out in '73.
These suckers only get about 35mpg, so don't be suprised when you have to fill up every 100 miles.
It isn't nearly as heavy or bulky as the CB 750, so I wouldn't think there would be any problems there (unless you are extremely small in stature).
I would still take the MSF course. It helps a lot.
