Its normal for the bike to get hot in traffic, as you say ther no air passing through the radiator, but it shouldnt be leaking coolant out! Id try a new radiator cap and see how that goes. what temperature is the gauge at when you are moving?

Don't worry about the level of the coolant in the bottle when it is hot. It is an expansion bottle and as the coolant in the system expands it moves into the bottle it is then sucked back out again when it cools down. This is normal.

You will find that if you have the coolant bottle filled to the max mark that if you ride the bike hard it will overflow a little. You don't need to have it this full, halfway between max and min is better. If it leaks at this level then you have a problem.

It's quite normal for the temperature gauge to get to halfway in traffic. The fan should kick in around this point. If it starts going into the top half of the range you may want to start checking your rad is clean and the fins are not bent.
