Overheating after service

Hi Guys,
Just went to pick up the Daytona after its 30000 mile service. Within 20 mins of leaving the dealer, stop-starting through Munich, get to a set of traffic lights and notice that the temp guage is redlining and the bike has ditched shedloads of coolant all over the road. Pulled over, took the seat off and the coolant in the tank seemed to be boiling and mixed with something seriously black and oily looking.

Can anyone please tell me what the hell is going on here? This is the first time the bike has ever overheated and it was only 18 degrees. Could they have done something seriously stoopid during the service, or am I just overreacting?

Cheers
bob

All sorted - turns out they trapped the wiring for the fan and snapped one of the cables. Muppets.
