I have a 1983 honda sabre 750 and I would like to find a service manual and maybe some history on the bike I don't know anything about them and would like to learn as much as I possibly can.

I bought my '83 on eBay about two years ago. It has been a good bike so far. They do have some inherent problems that you should be aware of. They are detailed in the first link provided below. The history can be found at Wikipedia. Manuals are available on eBay for $20-25 (Buy it now) maybe less depending on condition.
Before you put too much money into fixing it up or making repairs, make sure you have read up on some of the problems. The potential and probable repairs that will need to be made will likely be expensive unless you do all of the labor yourself. I decided to get my money's worth out of mine and part it out when the time comes.
One hint when doing Google or eBay searches will be to search on "sabre v45" to weed out the newer sabres. Also, the '84 model changed to a 700cc and received some body and electrical changes. Most of the '82 and '83 parts are interchangeable. You can also swap most of the engine parts with the Magna v45.

Here's a little bit of history on the V45 Sabre: http://www.cyclechaos.com/wiki/Honda_VF750S . It was the bike that formed the basis both the Interceptor and the Magna.

You could call or visit a Honda Motorcycle/Car dealer like we have in our town. They would/could have the resources to find out the info you want. Or try a search engine on the net.
I had an antique rifle...looked it up on the net! WOW! I was surprised at what I owned -- I thought it was just an old piece of junk...not so! I also own a 1987 Honda Aero motor scooter.
Good Luck!

Join a Yahoo Sabre or a Magna group.

Check the auction sites such as EBay. There are always things like manuals or brochures listed. I bought one for my old Honda "Big Red" for under $5!
