Got one in my garage, it is my buddy Jason's. They don't have the top end speed like the 83-85, the bars are more cruiser like, and they are chain drive, but otherwise a very similar riding experience. Just be careful when ordering parts as the Nighthawk has larger forks, different brakes, and such from the standard CB650, and the aftermarket doesn't seem to know it and advertizes that things fit but actually don't. Also the 82 needs regular valve adjustments, however they are a simple thing to do since it has adjustable rockers. Lastly Jason's bike would sputter at high RPM it turned out that it was starving for air despite having stock jetting, so removing the airbox lid totally cured that. I like the bike, it is especially suited for around the town or back roads cruising.
