RVF radiator splashing out coolant

[choonhao]

Today while riding, coolant start splashing out from the radiator. I realised it only during at a traffic light junction. There's a small chip at the radiator itself, cos a little amount of coolant to be splashing out.

 

Whenever the bike is hot, coolant will be splashing out non-stop. But once bike is cooled down, the splashing stop. It's just a small chip so I'm wondering if its possible to fix than to replace a new radiator which cost quite a bomb.

 

Appreciate if anyone can render some help

I believed the small chip is caused by tiny rocks on the road when riding.

I've checked. There's a hole at the radiator, so i doubt it's the coolant cap.
