Hi guys
Today, while returning home I noticed the leak, leaked a few drops. Leaking from the canal head. http://www.fotosik.pl/pokaz_obrazek/39c ... b2654.html

Should I think about replacing the head gasket, or could be some sort of other reason?

Hello everyone! As of today, we have 90 registered! That's going to be a great turn out!
Just a reminder that rally registration closes on May 9 so that we can place our t-shirt order for the rally.
If you are coming, but have not sent in your registration, do it TODAY or TOMORROW!
After that, we will not accept any orders for t-shirts. We order a few extra of the most common sizes for the rally. You can only get what is available.
Have you all made your hotel reservations? If not, do it NOW! If our blocked rooms are full at Laquinta Inn, you'll have to find other lodging.
See you all soon!

Gery;
that appears to be the drain hole from #1 sparkplug. Perhaps the pipe from the cylinder head to the rubber hose leading to the thermostat housing is leaking, or a loose hose clamp on the aforementioned. I hope that's it,

Definitely. Today, even after firing the bike I discovered coolant leak.
Interestingly, a few kilometers later, there were no leaks. Today undress the machine and see what and how.

Re: Leaking head gasket?
Luckily it was only a coolant leak. Come loose strap under the battery and the liquid flows into the spark plug hole and then leaking out through the drain holes.
Thanks gentlemen and greet gery
