2002 Daytona....Help!

Had a great 120 mile ride on my 2002 model 955i on Monday.
No probs at all.

Went to use the bike for work this morning for the first time and within two miles heard the fan cut in and saw the temp guage reading 108 c.
Stopped straightaway to find coolant all ove the left hand side of the bike, and some traces of oil on the rhs of the engine (what could be seen thro the fairing vent)

Got the bike recovered home and will looking at it tonight.
Any ideas where to start?
no previous issues, never used an coolant. Gave the bike a good clean after last ride and no issues apparent then.
What could caues the coolant to blow in such a short time?
Perhaps just a split hose or am i being optimistic? what would result in the bit of oil on the side of the engine? breather?
(engine still sounded ok when switched off, no smoke apparent)

Any ideas at all appreciated
