I just finished the dreaded water pump seal replacement on my 01 and all looked good... for about 20 miles! Now it has developed a coolant leak that seems to be coming from the area just under the coolant overflow tank. I did forget to fill the tank. Duh.
I don't see any leak above the tank. It is dripping from the lowest point of the small diameter hose that runs along the bottom of the tank.
Could be as simple as a leak in that hose or at the clamp?
What has to come off to remove that tank to check it? Looks like the shock bolt has to be removed?
Is there anything higher than the overflow tank that could be leaking?
I thought I was good to go and was delighted to be back on the bike. Damn...
