I have a Honda 2005 VTX1300R and I noticed some fluid on the ground before I went for a ride this morning. I found out that it is coming from a small hose connected to a fluid box underneath the bike. The hose is about 1/4". The fluid on the ground looks like it is a little green in color. The box under the bike where the hose is attached to is a white plastic type box and I can see fluid inside it. The leak seems to be coming from where the end of the hose is attached to the box with a hose clamp of some kind. Does anyone know what the fluid is and what could be causing the leak. The bike has 6,700 miles on it and it still looks showroom new. Thanks, Progers

HI; Sound like you have a crack in the over flow container. Make sure that the hose is connected to the bottle. Some of the hoses were just push on and others had a wire tie. Check the hose for a hole. If there is a hole in the bottle. The fix is replace it or mix up some JB weld and patch the crack. I have used JB weld and it works very well. Hope this helped...scruffy...
