Look again. It's a twin-cam 750. They first came out in '79. Five speed, chain drive. The tin foil trim and seat indicates it's a Nighthawk and yes, it does look like the 650. A higher refinement of the Custom series 750's. It's all cosmetic at this point in time. The NH didn't really become something unto itself till '83 with the 650 / six speed / shaft drive which wasn't shared with any other model. From my perspective (IMHO) the NH750 that was reborn as a five speed / chain drive bike should have been designated CB750C since it most closely resembles the 750 Custom from '79~'82. It has more in common with those than the '83~'86 models. At any rate, blame the marketing / advertising departments.
