After about 21 miles of riding (according to GPS) I noticed maybe 2 drops of green radiator fluid on the frame just beneath the water pump? Looked underneath and there seems to be a "weephole" under there and this is where it came from? Did not see any since and rode another 21 miles to get back so can anyone maybe explain? Thanks

Inside the water pump there is a cavity that separates the oil bathed side of the pump from the impeller(water side) of the pump. The weep hole is put in this cavity. If coolant constantly drips from the hole then the water side seal is bad, if oil leaks out it is the oil seal. Had a problem on my TL1000S, Suzuki ended up replacing seals many times.

Banzai!!!!!!!!!!!
