She did it once or twice after that, then after regaining a natural happy level, never did it again. Pressure has to go somewhere, preferably out via a hose breather.

Maybe just normal overflow, but the bike's had plenty damn good runs, like a 1000 mile weekend to Ireland last year, and the coolant level in the expansion bottle has never moved in 18 months I've had it.
It's also been up to 105 degrees plenty of times before, by which point the fan kicks in and keeps things in check (normally you can let it tick over as long as you like without it overheating, I've never seen it above 105 degrees). Normally when switching off the bike when hot the fan would continue and I'd notice it running (it's like an aircraft taking off), but there was a lot of ambient noise on that car deck, so it could have been running and I didn't hear it or feel the hot air blast.
So why now?
