Yes, my CB550 does the same on starting up.

don't know how long your system has been on- but I would expect any weeps to be sealed within 500 miles as the joint carbons up. May be worth just checking that the pipe is snug into the collector and even (rarely needed) a wipe of exhaust paste on the joint after removal just to stop any tiny movement

Hi Ian.
I have probably only done about 300 miles since refitting the system. I will have to be a bit more patient I expect ::) ::) ::)

When i done my F2 and started it for the first time i was horrified at the amount of water that came out of it, if it were watercooled i would have sworn it had a leak, but after it was run for a while it never repeated the huge puddle just the odd bit here and there, i wonder why they do that
