Hi Doug, This is on my 250 and what I was talking about was the sealer that some use around the exhaust pipe flange before you slide the pipe on.Flange to pipe not flange to head.I guess with the question I asked I assumed everybody has esp.Thanks Doug!!

Thomas,
I've been using a product called Chamber Seal. You simply roll it between your hands into a rope shape and then place it around the pipe before slipping it over the flange. Most bike shops can order it from Tucker Rocky or whoever their distributor is. Easy to use and works real good to prevent the oil blowby at the head pipe.
