Halfway down the cylinder just above (not on!) the circular cover at about 1 o'clock is the first drain screw.
The top left screw on the water pump cover also doubles up as a drain screw - directly below the coolant pipe cover retaining bolt. Behind the metal pipe running down from the radiator and just next to the water pump cover is a small flexible pipe which will drain off a bit more coolant if disconnected. That's yer lot! Well .... it worked for me!

Thanks for that Steve, i'm assuming its the ones marked & with the pipe shown as a dotted line. I'm waiting for my stainless hoses to arrive inc. the clutch hose. The bike looks very nice.
Thanks again.

Indeed, those are the ones.
You should be able to feel the other pipe mentioned behind the metal pipe close to the water pump housing, which is probably the lowest point of the system.
Thanks for the compliment - I've even put the reflector back on the radiator cover!!
