Check the plastic coolant tank, they are known to split.

My OPS went at Cadwell yesterday meaning I had to miss the last session :(
It's a simple unscrew and screw in affair to replace. Just make sure you don't overtighten it, hey Antonye ;)

The coolant on the left hand side is a split header tank as, believe it or not, is happening to me too. (Hang on a tick. You're not riding my bike are you?) Apparently it's a reasonably common'ish thing.

Split header tanks eh ... I had a bust one as did WJB, its not too hard to replace and not too expensive, about £22, jusy need to be methodical with it as its a bit of a pain in the backside, tank off, airbox out, ignition barrel moved out of the way ...

but seeing as i managed it on my own, you should be fine ...

OPS as Desmondo says, happens to em all eventually .... mine last year in the Pyrenees, what joy the hairpins were with an oily rear .. :bouncy:
