Default Coolant Leak

I have a 06' CBR1000RR and I have a small coolant leak. At first i thought it was coming out of the overflow, but later found that wasn't it. The weird thing is that it isn't a constant problem. I would say 1 out of 20 or more times I start the bike and let it warm up there will be a small amount of coolant on the crankcase. It is maybe 5-10 drops that form a small stream. It has never been more than that. Above when I said I thought it was coming out of the overflow was because when I first noticed the coolant, it was on the bottom of my fairing. But I'm assuming that is from where I was riding. I pulled the fairing off and I could not find anything. Each time it has done this I checked the fluid level and everything was ok there, so it has me a bit confused. I've searched on a few cbr forums and found nothing so any input is greatly appreciated.
