Would not dare to consume it, but anything glycol based is sweetish in taste, petrol - you can tell when it's over wet surface / smell - but leaking clear fluid can be either water or coolant. Didn't know any better way to test it. Stuck at home (bugger...) with 40C at present, was planning to go to the workshop and check the bike over. I'll start with filling it with deionised water, checking for leaks and level in expansion tank and change it for antifreeze (red - OAT - I believe) - at least it will be easier to tell where the leak is judging by the colour. I might drag it into the living room when the missus is off to sleep... Need it in three days for my Mod1!
