This is how to check to see if the head is losing presure and causing the coolant to overflow, remove the radiator fill cap then start the bike and look inside at the coolant for air bubbles or alot of turbulance as when working properly the coolant should almost look motionless. Are you using a 50/50 mix of coolant and distilled water?
