my 05 450r is shooting out sparks from or near the coil when i rev it up i mean a lot of sparks almost to the point of being a flame I've never seen anything like it ever on any motor is there a way to stop this will silicone work on it?

Welcome to the site !!

I am guessing either you have a bad ground issue , or for whatever reason the coil has been compromised and has swollen and is cracked

The only solution if the coil has been damaged is replacement , Silicone is not a "fix" , , remember you have a Gas Tank directly above the coil , Sparks and Gas are not good friends ..... just sayin ,,,,

You need to determine the cause of the sparking , by removing the tank , and firing up the bike (it will run for several minutes without a tank , which is long enough to test) , before doing anything , if the coil is just loose , its just a matter of tightening it up , if its the coil itself or the spark plug wire , then they will need replacement before running the bike again
