Coolant leaking from the reservoir cap
I have noticed that when my bike gets a little hotter than normal (200+) like when I am in stop and go traffic, there is a slight leak and it looks like it is coming out from underneath the reservoir cap. its not alot, just enough to make a line down the side and put a drop underneath it on the front part of the swingarm. There are just a few drops and it isnt enough to drip on the ground since the drops land on the swingarm.
Could the reservoir be too full? Like I said it isnt alot...but I would like it to stop. I just got the bike this spring and I am just noticing it now that the summer temps are here.

I know that the bike isnt overheating, I just meant when it gets hotter than regular riding temps (170-185). But the leak bothers me. I think the reservoir may be over full...would that cause the cap to leak?
