Royal Enfield Black Sprocket Carrier RAT00004/A for Interceptor 650 & Continental GT 650

Product Description

Royal Enfield RAT00004/A Sprocket Carrier Assembly, Black is a genuine rear wheel drivetrain component for compatible Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 and Continental GT 650 rear wheel assemblies. It is commonly searched as a sprocket carrier, rear sprocket carrier, cush drive carrier, sprocket hub, rear wheel sprocket hub or Interceptor / GT 650 sprocket carrier assembly.

The sprocket carrier sits in the rear wheel assembly and supports the rear sprocket/cush-drive area where the final drive transfers power from the chain to the rear wheel. This black carrier is the correct OE-style replacement when the original carrier is worn, cracked, damaged, corroded, impact-affected, loose in the cush-drive area, or being renewed during rear wheel rebuild work.

This listing is intentionally written for Interceptor 650 and Continental GT 650 only because “650 Twins” can now be confusing. Royal Enfield now has multiple 650-platform motorcycles, including Super Meteor 650, Shotgun 650, Bear 650 and Classic 650, and those should not be assumed compatible unless their exact parts catalogue confirms RAT00004/A.

Use this genuine Royal Enfield sprocket carrier only where RAT00004/A or RAT00004 is specified in the rear wheel diagram. It is not the complete rear wheel assembly, not the rear sprocket, not the chain, not the cush rubber set, not a wheel bearing, and not the silver sprocket carrier.

Important Exclusion Note

This listing should not be treated as a generic “650 Twins” part. It is written for Interceptor 650 and Continental GT 650 only. Do not order for Super Meteor 650, Shotgun 650, Bear 650, Classic 650 or any other Royal Enfield 650 model unless the exact rear wheel parts diagram confirms RAT00004/A.

Colour / Finish Note

This listing is for the black sprocket carrier assembly. Royal Enfield also uses a separate silver sprocket carrier reference for silver rear wheel applications. Do not order this black carrier if your motorcycle requires the silver carrier part number.

Important Fitment Note

This listing is for the sprocket carrier assembly only. It is not the complete rear wheel, not the rear hub, not the rear sprocket, not the chain, not cush rubbers, not the sprocket-side spacer, not wheel bearings, not dust seals, not the rear brake disc and not an axle kit.

Do not order only by motorcycle model name. Royal Enfield rear wheel parts can vary by colour, wheel assembly, spoke/alloy setup, production year and market specification. Please match RAT00004/A before purchase.

When Should This Part Be Replaced?

• Sprocket carrier is cracked, damaged or impact-affected
• Carrier seating area has excessive wear or play
• Rear sprocket mounting area is damaged or threads/stud seating are compromised
• Carrier is badly corroded or visually damaged
• Rear wheel assembly is being rebuilt after accident damage
• Cush-drive area inspection shows damage to the carrier
• Workshop needs the correct black Interceptor 650 / Continental GT 650 sprocket carrier instead of a mismatched silver carrier

Why This Part Matters

The sprocket carrier is a key drivetrain and rear wheel component. It supports the rear sprocket area and works with the cush-drive parts to transfer chain drive smoothly to the rear wheel. A worn, damaged or incorrect carrier can cause poor sprocket seating, drivetrain vibration, rear wheel assembly issues, abnormal play, or repeat repair work.

Using the correct genuine Royal Enfield RAT00004/A helps maintain factory rear wheel geometry and drivetrain reliability on compatible Interceptor 650 and Continental GT 650 applications.

• Cush rubber set
• Sprocket-side spacer and dust seal
• Wheel bearings and seals
