Couldn't load pickup availability
The Royal Enfield RAB00723/A Front Brake Caliper Assembly is the genuine factory-fitted front caliper used on the latest 650 Twins (Euro 5 / BS6) platform. Designed for the high-performance ByBre twin-piston front disc system, this anodized gold caliper delivers strong, consistent braking for spirited highway touring, daily commuting and occasional track use on your Interceptor 650 or Continental GT 650.
This is the exact OEM caliper assembly listed in the official Royal Enfield price list as “CALIPER ASSY, FRONT” under part number RAB00723/A, superseding older P81 caliper RAB00518/A on Twin models.Being an OEM unit, it comes pre-assembled with caliper body, bracket and hardware, and is engineered to bolt directly onto the original fork mounts and ABS system without any modifications.
Precision machining, high-temperature seals and an anodized finish help maintain braking performance even under repeated hard stops, while also giving your 650 a clean, premium look behind the front wheel. This is ideal if your existing caliper is seized, damaged in a crash, corroded, or you’re restoring a 650 Twin to 100% stock OEM spec.
🔴 Important Fitment Note: Some generic online listings incorrectly map RAB00723/A to Meteor / Classic / Hunter 350 J-Series. Official fiche and dealer catalogs show those models using a different caliper (RAB00467/C), so this part is not recommended for J-Series 350s. Always match your VIN and part number before ordering.

FAQs
Q1. Will this caliper fit my Meteor 350 / Classic 350 Reborn / Hunter 350?
No. J-Series 350 models (Meteor, Classic Reborn, Hunter, new Bullet 350) use a different front caliper (commonly RAB00467/C). This RAB00723/A unit is specific to the 650 Twins E5 front brake system and is not recommended for 350s.
Q2. Does this include brake pads?
YES IT HAS BRAKE PADS PRE INSTALLED
Q3. Can I use this on older (pre-Euro5) Interceptor / GT 650 models?
RAB00723/A supersedes the earlier RAB00518/A “FR CALIPER P81 – ANODIZED” used on Twins. Yes but recommended to confirm part number before purchase.
Q4. Is this a genuine Royal Enfield part or aftermarket?
This is a genuine OEM Royal Enfield caliper assembly, listed in the official RE price list and sold by authorised parts dealers worldwide under part number RAB00723/A.
Q5. Do I need any extra parts to install it?
In most cases, you can reuse your existing OEM brake hose, banjo bolts and ABS lines if they are in good condition. Replace copper washers and bleed the brake system thoroughly after installation. For safety, have a professional mechanic perform the work.
