This is a 2008 Husaberg FE550 with an Akrapovic Exhaust.
I need your help. My bike started to show signs of what looked like some oil spraying around the where the exhaust meets the piston header. The oil is everywhere, so it is difficult trying to pin point where it is coming from, but I believe this is it.
Should any oil be coming out of here at all? I thought it should just be exhaust gas coming out, not oil?
Should I just put some High temp RTV sealant around the exhaust pipes and slide them back in there?
Let me know if you guys see any other problems. Like indication of what the health of the engine is maybe?
