Coolant Leak

Hey All,
I just have one question. I have a 05 RC 51 and had it serviced in July 07, I then moved to Louisianna and had my bike sitting and unable to ride (due to work) I went out today and noticed a coolant leak around the left side of the bike. Has anyone else had this problem? The bike has been sitting around for about 5 months, and it only has 2400miles on it. Is this a systematic problem or did the shop mess it up?

Re: Coolant Leak

What did the shop service on the bike? It may be nothing more than a loose clamp on one of the hoses. How much coolant has leaked out? Try to locate the source of the leak if you can.
