Coolent leak?

(1/1)

SMPKX500:
My K5 is 04. The usual bolt on's and a pipe. I noticed a little coolant residue around the head gasket area of the head. Anyone else seen this?
It's low time bike and I wonder if I should leave it to see what happens or change the gasket.

reesedp:
I'd start by re-checking the torques on the head nuts.  Possible free fix.

The Flyin Hawaiian:
Do a search, I posted the same question a few months ago.

The Flyin Hawaiian:
Look up "02 KX 500 head gasket leak" Dont know how to link it.
