DAVENPORT 2008 SHOW GUIDE Davenport 2008 Show Guide Bigger than your garage! The 2007 meet packed over 500 vendors into 800 vendor spaces covering about 13 acres for your shopping bliss. Most likely you will find your special part here or at least meet some people who will direct you where to find it. Visitors report the Chief Blackhawk Meet is one of the largest Antique Swap Meets in the USA! Folks this is a great way to spend a vacation - but then again, I’m prejudiced. If you are restoring an antique motorcycle, looking to purchase a bike, or just interested in old bikes you should attend our meet and join your nearest AMCA chapter. Theme Bikes The theme for the 2008 Fall National is 1937 Models The theme for the 2009 Fall National is Quarter Liters. What’s a quarter liter? 250cc or 15 cubic inches, so we’re thinking bigger than 200cc and less than 251cc If you have a 1937 bike please send us a jpg and we will add it to the collection. Condition is not important, so original, restored, project, basketcase - you name it, we’ll display it. And bring that unit to the meet, so we can all see it! Technical Seminars at the Keppy Building Saturday, August 31 at 10:00 a.m. Erwin Smith (Smitty) will show and tell how to assess the condition of and properly assemble a built-up crankshaft. Appropriate for anyone working on bikes with fully rollerized crankshafts with full complement or caged bearings, and tapered and threaded pins and shafts. Saturday, August 31 at 11:00 a.m. Gene Harper is going to share his expertise on the 3 brush generators and voltage regulators. We’ve taken the liberty of linking to the Splitdorf webpage just to give you a feel. This a repeat of the 2007 seminar, it was well received and we’ve scheduled it up against lunch so you can ask all the questions you’d like. Saturday, August 31 at 1:00 p.m. Kevin Valentine, AMCA Chief Judge is going to bring us up to speed on what judging is all about, how to interpret the Judging Handbook, how to become a judge, how to apply what you’ve learned, and how to better prepare to have that bike judged. Here is your opportunity to get beyond judging as a mystical process and make it real as applied to judging at AMCA events. Saturday, August 31 at 2:00 p.m. Doug Matheson of Berge Plating will address the question of plating. What is it, why do we care, why does it cost so much, where to get it done - The Chrome Shop of course!. Bring all your questions and Doug will help you with the answers, no price quotes please. This is plating in general, chrome, nickel, copper, cad, zinc, etc., not just chrome, so be prepared to ask most anything. We are taking ideas for 2009, step right up and let us know what you would like to learn about. Care & feeding on Vintage brake setup? Cable making? Electronic Ignition conversions? Wheel Truing? Pin Striping? Metal Casting? How to start a unit where everything is manual? How to put a bike on the centerstand, wheelstands? Rubber Casting? Metal Working? Instrument repair?
