Hey guys,
Curious on your thoughts on what is causing these droplets of coolant. It has happened twice already. I ride bike for a few hours, come home and droplets wont appear until a day or two after bike is sitting. I rode to work on Sat (45 mile trip one way) left bike sitting in the parking lot and no coolant after 9 hours. Came back home, let bike sit for a couple of days and this morning this droplet of coolant. I cannot seem to find where it is coming from. I retightened hoses and the droplets are a bit less but it is still occurring. Coolant levels are good and have Samco hoses that have been installed close to 1k miles ago. I have not done anything to bike other than ride it more now that weather is better and some days have been close to 98 degrees. Any thoughts? Is this a cause for concern? Thank you in advance for any feedback.

Also, bike does not overheat and varies from 2 to sometime 3 bars on the dash display.
 
You sure that’s not the overflow tank purging itself? Look for coolant on the overflow hose on bottom of bike— probably front right area—at least it is on 1098 and 1199 bikes.
