The Royal Enfield 576297/D – Damper Exhaust Mount is the genuine exhaust rubber hanger / silenbloc used to support the exhaust system on the 650 Twins and Super Meteor 650. Official Royal Enfield microfiche lists 576297/D as “DAMPER EXHAUST MOUNT” / “SILENBLOC” in the EXHAUST diagrams for Continental GT 650 Euro 4 and Interceptor 650 Twin Euro 4.
Updated OEM catalogues for 2023–2024 Interceptor 650 (cast wheel/LED versions) also include 576297D – SILENBLOC in the exhaust exploded view, confirming continued use on the BS6 / Euro 5 bikes.
In Brazil, the official Royal Enfield store kit “Coxins do escape GT/INT/Meteor” lists 576297/D as part of the kit and states compatibility with GT 650, Interceptor 650 and Super Meteor 650, alongside 576298/D and 576324/D.
Manufacturers’ price lists classify 576297/D under HSN 40169960, confirming it as a rubber exhaust mounting component, not a metal spacer.
Replacing worn or cracked 576297/D mounts restores proper exhaust alignment, reduces vibration and rattling, and prevents stress on brackets – critical if you ride with luggage, a pillion, or use heavy slip-ons. For a proper overhaul, pair it with the matching damper pin (576298/D) and related hardware as shown in the OEM exhaust diagram.

FAQs
Q1. What exactly does Royal Enfield part 576297/D do?
It’s the rubber exhaust mount / silenbloc that sits between the exhaust assembly and the mounting hardware on 650 models. It cushions the exhaust, reduces vibration and protects exhaust studs, brackets and pins from fatigue.
Q2. Which bikes is 576297/D confirmed to fit?
Based on official microfiches and OEM dealer catalogues, 576297/D is confirmed for:
-
Interceptor 650 – BS4/Euro 4 and BS6/Euro 5
-
Continental GT 650 – BS4/Euro 4 and BS6/Euro 5
-
Super Meteor 650 – BS6 (all variants)
These models consistently show 576297/D as Damper Exhaust Mount / Silenbloc in the exhaust diagrams or official kits.
Q3. How many 576297/D dampers do I need for my bike?
Most 650 exhaust diagrams show one damper exhaust mount per exhaust mounting location, typically giving 1–2 pieces per bike, depending on the model and bracket layout. Always check the parts book or VIN-based fiche for your specific year and region before ordering; when in doubt, riders usually order 2 pcs to refresh both sides.
Q4. Should I replace this when fitting aftermarket or heavier slip-ons?
Yes. If you’re upgrading to heavier slip-ons or ride with luggage and a pillion, old exhaust rubbers can be crushed or cracked. Replacing them with fresh 576297/D mounts (plus new pins and washers) restores proper support and significantly reduces rattling and stress on the frame and studs.
Q5. Is 576297/D a rubber or metal part?
It’s a rubber component. Royal Enfield price lists classify 576297/D under HSN 40169960, which covers vulcanised rubber articles such as bushes and mounts, and export/import data clearly describes it as “DAMPER EXHAUST MOUNT” / exhaust rubber hanger.
