I was coming home from work one day this week when I noticed a dribble of blue liquid on the RHS of the bellypan and over the reg/rec.

Wiped it up. Then took off the bellypan, expansion tank cover etc. had a look around for splits and ran the bike up for a few mins until it was up to temp again but I couldnt see where it was coming from??? I've been out 6 or 8times since, and each time there is more leaking.

I think I've got it sussed. The damn crimped jubilee clips on the alloy section of pipe at the rad. Probably the upper one.

So, anyone else had this problem? Should I just swap the clips for standard screw-tight ones?
 
aw rite haggis, aye a hud the same bother and a wis ****** if a could find it, and yer right, its they pish wee crimped clips, i popped them aw aff and put on normal jubilee clips, ma mate was saying that they weaken over time, swap them ower and it should be job done bud :)
