Black Outer Headlamp Rim for Classic 350 ABS BS6 – Genuine Royal Enfield 1040738/A | Chrome Rim Swap Option

This part works in two buyer-intent scenarios. First, it is the correct OEM replacement when the original rim is bent, rusted, scratched, chipped, or loose. Second, it can be used as a black-rim style change for riders who want to move away from a chrome-look front end, provided the headlamp shape and mounting setup match. Also searched as black headlamp rim, black headlight rim, outer headlamp ring, and Classic 350 black rim. Public seller listings beyond the strongest dealer mapping also market 1040738/A as a black outer headlamp rim for UCE models, which supports the cross-sell/retrofit angle, but the cleanest stock fitment evidence remains Classic 350 ABS BS6.

Before you buy: this listing is for the outer black rim only. Confirm your headlamp shell, rim profile, and mounting style before ordering—especially if you are buying it as a chrome-to-black conversion.

FAQs 

Q1. What is 1040738/A exactly?
It is the outer black headlamp rim, the ring that sits around and retains the headlamp assembly. It is not the full headlamp.

Q2. Which bike is this stock-fitted on most clearly from the sources?
The strongest surfaced public proof confirms Classic 350 ABS - BSVI.

Q3. Can I use this black rim to replace my chrome rim?
Yes, that is a valid buyer use-case if the headlamp shape, rim profile, and mounting style match. Public seller listings market 1040738/A as a black rim for wider UCE-family use, but I would treat those as retrofit/visual-match guidance, not equal-strength stock fitment proof.

Q4. Is this the complete headlamp assembly?
No. This is the outer rim only. The same headlamp family lists 1040739/A Inner Rim - Head Lamp separately, which confirms this is only one part of the headlamp setup.

Q5. Will this fit all UCE bikes?
I would not present that as fully stock-confirmed from the strongest public sources alone. For UCE bikes beyond the Classic 350 ABS BS6 mapping, use this as a visual-match retrofit option and compare your current rim carefully before ordering.

Q6. What problem does this part solve?
It replaces a bent, rusted, scratched, chipped, or damaged outer headlamp rim and can also be used to give the front end a more blacked-out look.

Q7. How do I avoid ordering the wrong rim?
Match 1040738/A, compare the rim diameter/profile, confirm the mounting style, and make sure you need the outer rim only before ordering.
