Default Coolant leaking from head gasket

Hey guys I had a guy replace a head gasket for me and now it’s leaking coolant from the front of the bike by the headers. The leak is pretty fast coolant drained out with in a couple of days... do this sounds like the wrong torque specs? He didnt replace the old one? Or didn’t use gasket glue when he installed the new gasket? Help please!! I have pics if i could email someone

Could be any one of those three. If you are losing coolant, likely will have to pull the head off and put in a new gasket. That would give you the chance to inspect the block and head surfaces for any issues and to ensure they are square/flat.
