My 2016 GT is leaking brake fluid between the calipers. I took the two halves apart to clean and I realized the two halves are metal on metal with no gasket. When I put it back together, I noticed the fluid leaks from the top when I apply rear brake pressure.
I torques the two bolts holding the halves together up to 60 nm and I’m afraid to go any further. I also double checked nothing foreign was between the calipers (used brake cleaner and sandpaper to really clean the metal contact surface).
I have a bad feeling I wasn’t even supposed to take the calipers apart since the KTM don’t even see those two bolts individually.

Any suggestion is appreciated before I’m forced to buy new brake calipers for $160.
