[ST] 01' Sprint ST antifreeze leak issue, PT 2.

["Scott Inman" <scott__inman@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi everyone.  Hope you all had a great riding weekend!

Well, I've got 300 miles on the bike now, and I'd like to update the 
antifreeze leak issue.

I stopped by Sean Ford's house yesterday, and when he looked at the bike, we 
noticed that the antifreeze leak has gotten WORSE.  Before I had a few drops 
and drool here and there, but now most of my chain guard, swingarm, and rim 
are covered in the blue slime.

After letting the bike cool, the antifreeze sight shows that the level is 
JUST on the 'low' indicator.  I know people have said its normal for the ST 
to spit for a bit, but is it supposed to go below the 'low' sight on the 
bottle?

Do I have more than a minor issue perhaps?

I did check the cap and it is not leaking from there... it seems the 
antifreeze leaks down the frame to the 'seat unlock', and then drips from 
there onto the mentioned parts.

Any recommendations?  Or did those of you who experienced leaks have this 
happen to this level as well?

Sorry for all the questions... I'm a bit worried, having a bike less than a 
week old leaking antifreeze like an unwatched Nuclear Reactor. :)

Scott
