I did this with a 1981 Honda cb750 two winters ago. I also had no prior mechanical knowledge and found it incredibly fulfilling and rewarding. There was an amazing online community dedicated to the motorcycle that I have that was incredibly helpful. I'd recommend this to anyone willing to put in the work.

Edit: I should add that this bike now my daily rider. I could afford a much newer and nicer bike, but I don't think I'll ever sell this one given how much work I put into it and how familiar I am with its internals.
