    That would be very odd. Keep an eye on it, you can even get your own radiator pressure tester kit cheap.

    Usually a seal in the water pump housing goes bad it leaks out of the weep hole and you see it leaking out. Not in your exhaust ?????

    The condensation in the exhaust is simply a byproduct of combustion; Octane + Oxygen = CO2 + Water

    Yup My SX Beta bike huffs like a steamboat about 35 seconds after start and continues until the fans come on, but the coolant level never changes ( so far).

    check the left side fairing on the bottom front corner for staining, some of the drain plugs on the radiator leaked. Mine had a brown residue that was cooked on just had to unscrew and reset the drain plug. Also check for a leaking water pump seal on the right side underneath the exhaust just above the clutch housing
