Coolant leak out of the blue

[RykerUSA]

I've had my 2015 St parked in the garage for the winter and when I walked in last evening, to my surprise, there's a pretty good size pool of antifreeze right behind the front right tire. It wasn't there the day before and that bike has seen no activity for the last 3 weeks. Any ideas?

Our 2011 RT did the same thing. Had to change out the crimp on clamps for screw clamps on the radiator hoses. Gold water leaks can start just about anytime. It comes from the heat expanding the clamp and then getting cold again. Just don't tighten the screw clamps to tight and crack the plastic housing the hose goes on.

Could be a clamp, but the only way you will know is to remove the Tupperware on the right side and see if you can pinpoint the source of the leak. I just went through the same thing, and previously there hadn't been any signs of a leak. I think I have mine figured out, but once it's back on the road for a bit, I will know for sure. As it turns out, one of the original clamps on the waterpump had been replaced and when I checked it, the screw was pretty loose. In my case, I had intended to change the coolant since the bike is 7 years old, in your case, it's probably not necessary unless you have lost a considerable amount.

I found a leak on my 2015 RTS when I changed oil last week. I tightened the clamp ,I don't see anymore leaks.

You're lucky most of the clamps used as Oetiker and can't be tightened, only replaced.
