-- For the second-straight week, FLUIDYNE® Powersports' custom radiator helped propel Bryan Smith and his Ninja 650-based flattracker to victory in an AMA Grand National Twins Mile event, this time in Springfield, Illinois.
"I've never won back-to-back nationals, so this is a dream come true for me," said Smith of his fourth-ever Mile win. The 27-year-old former Harley-Davidson factory rider and AMA 883 champion from Flushing, Mich., is a Mile specialist: "I'm always better on the bigger, faster tracks. And how our bike makes power on the big tracks is a major advantage. Springfield is a really fast, groove track with huge corners. We go almost as fast through them as we do on the straights. We've got another Mile this weekend that suits my style even more. It would be awesome to keep the streak alive."

"Fluidyne Powersports is one of the main components of our program because this racebike is only as good as its Fluidyne radiator," said Bill Werner, co-owner and tuner of the Monster Energy- and Kawasaki-sponsored team. With the experience of more than 130 wins and 13 championships, Werner is Smith's ace in the hole. The wily wrench wouldn't give away his motor's exact horsepower figure, but did divulge that the Ninja's vertical Twin makes less torque than its V-Twin competitors, which reduces tire wear. And, as the AMA Hall of Famer says, "In this case, less is more.
In addition to keeping their cool, FLUIDYNE® radiators are also built more rugged to fend off damage. Constructed from aircraft-quality aluminum, structural highlights include thicker materials throughout, a CNC-machined billet filler neck, beaded hose connections for leak-proof sealing and a stainless-steel radiator caps. These components are held together with substantial TIG welds to withstand extreme conditions and produce a crash survival rate far exceeding the OEM parts.
Not only do FLUIDYNE® radiators out-cool and outlast the stock units, they're much less expensive, come with a one-year warranty and install easily, utilizing the factory mounts and hardware.
