I figured this was the place to go with my honda question...

Anyway, I have an '81 CB750k, and I'm trying to buy a new chain for it. I've never bought a chain before, and I can't figure out what size this thing takes. How would I figure it out? I went to the microfiche and it says it is a 50v-108le, whatever that mean. Can anyone help me here?

Take your old chain down to the shop and have them make you up a new one with the same number of links.

According to this link the '81 CB750K uses a 108 link, #530 chain if the gearing is still the OEM 18/46.

Red, you rule!

No offense Zen, but that would be cheating.

No offense taken.

I just figured since you've never bought a chain before, that would be the easiest way for you to do it.

You just need to know how to use a search engine.
