Next time your out riding, take 2 small twigs off of a pine tree and stick them up your nose, I promise the antifreeze smell will go away. ?

Its probably just the overflow that you smell. Mine does it occasionally since I have removed the electric fan.

I've never noticed that smell, but my overflow tank does occasionally have some fluid in it. My understanding is it's no big deal (the smell or the fluid), unless you have the leaking water pump that has occasionally been a problem on DRZs. I think drz.info has something on the water pump. But if your level's not dropping I don't think you have a problem.
