Having some exhaust header sealing issues. Anybody ever use black RTV silicone to help seal or any of the spray gaskets. Let me know your thoughts on using these to help seal.

If you are talking about where the gaskets meet the head, I don't think RTV can take the heat. You could try some of that exhaust seal stuff but I think the best idea is just to get some brand new gaskets and be done with it. -
you need red i believe. still may not be enough. new gaskets are the way to go.never sleep with anyone crazier than yourself sigpic2011,2012,2013,2014,2015,2016Comment

Permatex makes exhaust sealant, though you need new gaskets.90% of motorcycle forum members do not have a service manual for their bike.

I think Permatex Ultra Copper has the highest heat rating
I would only use in addition to new gaskets if there is a problem
