just got my 1125R on Friday. crappy weather has meant only a couple quick rides on it. VERY IMPRESSED!
i took it for a good ride today & had some fun on it: twisties, 1st 2nd & 3rd wheelies, high speed (not gonna post actual) and then some city riding.
when i stopped to take a break i noticed what looked like dried white droplets above my clutch cover. when i took a closer look coolant was weeping from the breather hole in the waterpump housing. NOT MUCH, but it had been dripping.

is this normal/ok???

bike is still stock with 3000kms (bought as a DEMO). my dealer has the new harness on order & will call when its in. i also have the E b R HMF Race ECM, resistor, HMF pipe & K&N coming in this week.

Keep an eye on it, but you probably need the clutch slave kit.

Is this an 08 or 09? Issue should have been sorted on 09 models.

Coolant leak is not normal, mine is getting picked up Friday for this to be repaired, warranty work.
