As BP said, open it up and check it out, just be careful not to spill any on your paintwork.

It would be prudent to flush the system with new fluid. If you just bought the bike you most likely do not know when it was last changed. It should be replaced every 2 years.Forgiveness is what defines us. For without forgiveness, humans would have annihilated themselves with endless retributions.
