this afternoon i was in the garage messing with the sled looking for things to do on it,(no snow).when i noticed dros of antifreeze coming out from under the head gasket. Now this is no normal 01 mountain max 700, it has a little of everything thrown at it. peak performance head, v-force reeds,porting,head gasket insert removal, etc etc etc. so now my question is WTF? took a torque wrench to all head bolts from the center out, none were loose!

antifreeze

Well seems to me like you may have a number of different problems, did you buy the head new? if not the head may be warped, the heads may not be torqued properly, or you may have a bad head gasket.....
 
Where is it leaking from..just one cylinder,front or back?may be bad headgasket, warped head from improper torqueing...take the head off..look at the gasket. You should be able to tell where its leaking from...buy a new gasket and re-torque..most likely just a bad gasket.
 
looks like it is leaking up front, under the notches, so i should probably take it apart and check it out before riding again? that sucks, what do you do.
