Radiator Hose

[blobbs]

Took my bike out of the garage today and left it on my drive on the side stand. Got the rest of my kit on and came back to the bike to find a pool of fluid below the bike. On further inspection it appears to be leaking from the bottom radiator hose on the side stand side. I tried to tighten the threaded hose clip but it appears to slip. I only bought the bike a week ago (it's brand new). Should I replace the hose clip or ring a dealer to collect it and fix it under the warranty? Closest dealer is 60 miles away so I don't want to chance riding it there

For sure ... ring the dealer and tell them what's happened. You don't want to be getting into any kind of repair on a brand new bike.

Rang Yamaha and they sent out the RAC. The guy pressure tested the hoses and it was fine. He reckoned it was water that had collected in the radiator fins from me washing the bike the previous afternoon. I have not had any problem since........Doh
