RAQ00493 is the genuine Royal Enfield “HANGER, NUMBER PLATE”—the OEM rear number plate hanger/bracket used on the Himalayan 450 rear mudguard/undertail assembly. If your plate is vibrating, the hanger is cracked from luggage pressure, or the mounting points broke after a fall, replacing the hanger with the correct OEM part restores factory alignment, rigidity, and clean rear look—without the common issues seen with aftermarket “universal plate holders” (wrong hole spacing, weak plastic, misaligned angle).
This part is listed in multiple Royal Enfield dealer catalog systems as HANGER, NUMBER PLATE and shown under the Himalayan 450 rear mudguard parts book pages.
Important (suffix control): You may see suffixes like RAQ00493/E or RAQ00493/C depending on catalog revision/market. Functionally they refer to the same “HANGER, NUMBER PLATE” family, but you should match the suffix using VIN/microfiche or your old part label to avoid returns.

FAQs
1) What is RAQ00493 used for?
RAQ00493 is the rear number plate hanger/bracket (Royal Enfield calls it HANGER, NUMBER PLATE) mounted at the back of the bike under the rear mudguard/undertail area.
2) Is this confirmed for Himalayan 450?
Yes. It appears as RAQ00493 in Himalayan 450 rear mudguard parts book pages, and multiple sellers list the Himalayan 450 fitment for the same part family (often shown as RAQ00493/E).
3) Why are there different suffixes like RAQ00493/E and RAQ00493/C?
Royal Enfield commonly revises suffixes by production batch/market. The base number identifies the part family, but the suffix can matter for exact supply. To avoid wrong dispatch, match the suffix via VIN/microfiche or your old part packaging.
4) Will this fit Himalayan 411 / Scram 411 / Scram 440 / Classic / Bullet?
Not confirmed for those models from the sources used here. This listing is intentionally restricted to Himalayan 450 to reduce returns.
5) My plate is shaking even with a new hanger—what else should I check?
Check the rubber grommets, mounting bolts, and the tail tidy/indicator mount points. Many “rattle” complaints come from worn grommets or loose fasteners, not only the hanger.
