You could be lucky and have an airlock somewhere in the radiator, but my bet would be that the head gasket is blowing into the coolant...
When it happened to mine there was no power loss or other symptoms like oil in the coolant or vice-versa - just coolant pishing out of my overflow.

does the water in the overflow bubble up when the bike gets hot??
Would flush throught the rad and get some nice new coolant. If not it's prolly your head gasket
