i have a 2001 r6,everytime i fire it up from cold (everytime) water comes from exhaust AND leaks from the link pipe connection to exhaust on the floor.its like a little puddle of water.im a bit worried its doing this everytime from cold when i fire it up.it goes away once the bike is warm etc... but dont quite know why its doing this all the time.ok maybe once or twice due to condensation etc.. but its everytime.it did not use to happen just started recently
your answers will be greatful
i heard it could be a head gasket problem

personally i would say its condensation, if it was the head gasket the problem wouldnt go away when the engines warm, but get worse in my opionon.

but im sure someone will be along soon and confirm or disagree.

for every litre of fuel up to a litre of water can go through the motor at this time of year.

totally normal Very Happy
