[QUOTE="RossKean, post: 1359282, member: 19880"] Was the road wet? You get some pretty funky smells of road spooge burning off the exhaust. Very unlikely to be the water pump but you might have a coolant leak somewhere - a few drops on a hot surface can cause an odor. Lots of hoses, joins and junctures to check but I would look at the one going to the coolant pipe on top of the engine and one going to the water pump. No wet spots under the bike after parking? Is this the first ride after a long winter layoff? Could just be dust burning off. [/QUOTE]
