Coolant smell?

Hi.
After a ride out on the SP, I can always smell coolant, but when I check I cant see anything leaking out anywhere. :angry-banghead:
This has been going on for some time and the coolant level doesn't seam to be going down. I've even road her with out the fairing on to see if I can see anything but nothing. I've checked all the hose clips and all are tight.
Any idea's? :think:

Had the same on the red SP. Turned out to be a hairline crack on the LH Rad, lower mounting point. Seemed to seal itself when cold but left the fairing foam wet. Finally found it by removing the fairings and running the bike up to temperature on paddock stands to reveal a very slight weep.
Worth a try.
