    Need Help Syrup smell from a 08 fz6?

    So I was getting on my bike for the first time in a couple months and when I let it idle I noticed a sweet smell coming from it? I was wondering if anyone had a similar scenario happen. My initial thoughts are a possible coolant leak?

    Stuborn bolts. Anyone wanna lend a little wisdom?
