My bike has 98000km and recently whenever I return from a ride, there is an oil discharge approx. 1 tablespoon from the breather pipe which runs from the airbox. I approached KTM and they said it is not a problem and on their advice I have fitted a new back pressure valve but it is still a problem.
I do not know if it is an abnormal pressure buildup in the engine due to either bearings or rings. I must inform you that the bike is not smoking and is NOT down on general power??
what do you think it could be and how do I remedy this?
Do I need to rebuild the engine now as I was playing with the idea of doing it @ 100k ?? ???
