Losing coolant

Hi all,
I have a 2001 sportsman 500. After about every 100 miles, the coolant reservoir is about half empty. Oil doesnt have any coolant in it, no smoke from exhaust and no leaks from water pump or anywhere else. Any ideas where it may be going ? Thanks in advance for any help.

the coolant reservoir is going to fill and empty based on the temperature of the engine coolant itself.

A better indicator is how full the radiator is, that should always be full, cold or hot.

Now, with that known, if you're truly losing coolant, its got to be going somewhere, and it would either be dripped, burnt, or lost into the oil.
