Can't see any leaks from that pic but if it's coolant check;

all hose clamps,
hose conditionunderneath clamps and in their entirety,
water pump housing,
thermostat housing.

If all those check out fine then I can be of no help. Prolly should go ahead and remove all your fairings now and change/clean youroil//oil filter/plugs/air filter while your down there if you haven't lately. Maybe even do any carb cleaning or maintainence, too.

Good luck!

I guess worst case scenario you've got a cracked block but let's start small...

Yeah I see it but the thing with coolant leaks is, if you don't know when it started, it's kind of hard sometimes to see where it started. When you're at speed it flies around on everything. That bit of coolant on the bolt could be nothing or something.

I've having a hard time, it's been a while on the F3, but where on the bike are we looking in this picture? I'm sure that's a fuel line clamp/hose I see...

Is this on the right side of the bike looking a bit forward, to the front of the bike?

The bolt with the coolant looks like it could be a mount of some sorts... check for any cracks on the block around it. It helps to CLEAN the bike VERY WELL too. Also helps later for troubleshooting.

This is why I like to clean my bike before every real ride and always like to wipe her down at the end of the day.
