It appears my bike is leaking a small amount of oil from between the centre cases. There appears to be a black silicone sealant or something that runs along the length, and it’s starting to peel off.

Should I just silicone the whole thing, or is there a gasket in there that’s gone bad?

Usually its a bead of silicone sealing the cases. Honda does/used to make gaskets. Not sure if ktm does but either way you gotta split the cases to fix it.

It should be a gasket on the ktm. At least it is on my 14 sx

Can it just be sealed from the outside?

You could try but chances are it wouldn’t last very long, got a pic?
