Protect your 650 Twin without spoiling its classic lines. The Royal Enfield Compact Engine Guard (Part No. 1990406) is a genuine GMA/OEM crash bar designed specifically for the Interceptor 650 and Continental GT 650 (2018-on). Built from 25 mm stainless-steel tubing, it adds a discrete but strong layer of protection against drops and slow-speed mishaps while resisting corrosion even if scuffed.
Unlike bulky aftermarket bars, the “compact” profile hugs the frame for a clean factory look and easy service access. RE’s official fitting instructions list this part number as the compact guard for the 650 Twins, with model-specific brackets for a true bolt-on install—no drilling or welding.
If you tour, commute, or ride in traffic, the 1990406 guard is a smart safeguard for crankcase covers and lower engine hardware while keeping weight low and styling subtle. Being a genuine accessory, it aligns perfectly with OEM clearances and maintenance procedures.
