Help leaking coolant

Post by Wind3x »

my bike is leaking coolant from somewhere Under the seat..
its not the overflow..
its not water pump or any seal from it..

seem's to leak when i ask power at the bike. (some of to much pressure)

i put some collant in it something like 1/2 over the upper line .. i can ride allmost all day and when i get home its not even Under upper line..

i need help.. i found some picture's on the net from where it THINK it's leaking... any hint ?

Greetings

First up - Don't ride the bike till you stop the leak as you risk damaging the engine if it lacks proper cooling.

Take tank, seat and fairing off to get to the source of the leak - check coolant system for any signs of spilt/damaged hoses and around where they clamp for corrosion, plus loose clamps.

This might be useful...
