Hello- I am a newbie to submitting topics on any forum, although I have read from for many for years. I have been reading from chinariders.com for a year or so. I have ordered a db-07a through scootersfactory.com on the 16th and now have found out that they don't have any 07a's left. He said it could be a couple of weeks. If I wanted a db-07 it would ship today, so I agreed. (Waiting for a container ship from China could be a couple of weeks or a couple of months I thought.) I will let you all know how this progresses along. Summertime is coming and I WANT TO RIDE!!!

Love it!! Simple question, Can I save video from YouTube? I have a slow connection :cry: and I hate to wait to see something that I have already seen :x . I have tried to right-click, but to no avail. :?

I think youtube's are copyrighted so you can't save them...at least not easily, but I don't know much about it. Anyone, anyone?

Well, if you're using Firefox as your browser (www.mozilla.org), then you should be able to install the "Download Helper" extension that will do just that:https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3006

I've never used it but have heard good reviews. At the same time, I think YouTube saves as a flash (.flv) file so you will need a flash player to play it.

when dealing with some of those big drop shipper.soon you see one and when the person opens the box. its broke and when they call. they get blown off. they come in my store everyday with parts in hand and the print out from the drop shipper. thats sad. and also how i kinda got started selling these. but it was pep boys.
