I havent started my 450R for a few weeks so I decided to go out and let it idle for a bit. After cranking it over for a few seconds I noticed a small puddle of coolant on the floor. After looking around I see it leaking from the black hose coming from the radiator to the motor. It is leaking right at the very end of the hose on the radiator side. The clamp looks tight and I don't see anything obvious. Anyone have any idea what the issue is?

Tighten it. Just cause it looks tight, doesn't mean it is. Sometimes they work their way into the rubber, causing them to loosen.
