Head Gasket has popped, pressurizing the cooling system, forcing the coolant out the overflow.

if the head gasket had gone would the bike not be smoking ??

Nopes.

Mine popped, no smoke.
The HG can just pop enough to let gas into the cooling system.

It doesnt always look like this when the HG lets go.
