Was it on the lower pipe from the radiator on the left hand side of the bike ?

I just replaced the jubilee clips and problem solved.

Rich.

If you go round the bike you will find most of the fixings will need a tweek ! Dont forget these bikes are hand built by ...... Birds that have not got a clue ! :lol::lol::lol:

it was on the left hand side of the rad

was it the small or the large coolant hose??

Picked up my 749 a few weeks ago and had exactly the same - it was the small clip on the hose that runs along the top of the rad. Tightened it but could not get it to stop when pressurised. The clip is pretty poor and it was fixed it on the first service. Pretty common as my dealer knew right what I was talking about...
