well worth checking the hose clips first .  I had a very slight coolant weep ( noticed after the bike was put in the garage warm and it left a little puddle on the floor)
 
It turned out only to be the radiator top hose clip  -  replaced it with another hose clip and it has been perfect ever since.

I'd always check the engine drain plug and hose connecting to the filler
