The liquid that is pouring out appears to be coming from the green tank on the trailer, he seems to know what he's doing.

Looks like a crude water cooling of the engine fed from a tank on the trailer. They sure make their motorcycles work hard.

I guess he has to pick a calm day. Wind could be a problem.

Just think it takes a 1500 cc $30,000.00 bike to carry a 300lb tattooed scraggly gray haired lard butt to the local bar. While these people with a tiny little 125CC bike are transporting a larger "VOLUMED" load according to the US Highway DOT, than could legally be hauled on 2 550 HP tractor trailer rigs,
They might not be displaying an oversized load banner, but they do have a rear safety escort, who may be there to help push up a hill if needed.

Most likely just a ball shut-off valve to save water when he is stopped or idling.

Yes, "temperature control system" was kind of a joke.
