I tightened 26+ coolant hose clamps on my Valkyrie at about 9500 mi when installing my heated grip kit-Normal for hoses too bake in with heat and pressure cycles, and require clamp tightening-Overflow bottle was down and spotted several small seeps at hose connections- Had to get my trick bag out to do the job(long extension with 6mm flex socket)

Thanks for the tip. I'll keep my eyes peeled.
