I guess I'm just too lame to figure out how to do this. How do you guys do it?

Open up another session of your browser (IE) and go to youtube.com....When you find a vid you want to post, highlight the URL (http//www.youtube.com/xyxyxyx)with your mouse and copy it (Ctrl-C) and paste it (Ctrl-V) into the H-D Forums text box...

What he said. Pick your vid. Right click the url to highlight it in blue. Hit ctrl C. That saves it. Then open your reply window & hit ctrl V. That will post it in your reply.

BTW. You don't have to have two windows open. You can ctrl C & move to another window & the next time you ctrl V it will post that video.

Don't worry about it, we've already seen the police obstacle course video.

Wow . . . kinda presumptive on your part. I'm one of those who bitched about the multiple postings of that video.

What did you do to get it to work? I spent a half hour on this already and it looks like I am doing the same thing you were.
