my z400 was leaking collant out of the side of the engine here the hose goes into it, it was only doing this after i stopped riding. i ran it today and it was not leaking. what is going on here?

have you attempted to fix it? could be a loose hose? could be a bad hose? could be bad coolant? experiment

how often do u have to replace the coolant???
and i checked the hose and it was tight, does look kinda worn out some though.

im no expert but i dont think you are supposed to change it alot i think once a year or so and the coolant could have gotten very hot and instead of pushing out the overflow it found a seep in the hose and went that way just a thought:confused:

i only rode it for about 20 minutes so i hope it wasnt getting too hot, and it was about 50 degrees outside. im thinkin about replacing the hose.
