RRP Oil Cooler Guard for Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 & Continental GT 650 – SS304 (Black Matte / Matte / Polish)

Keep your 650 Twin’s heart safe on every ride. The Red Rooster Performance (RRP) Oil Cooler Guard is a heavy-duty stainless steel protector designed specifically for the Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 and Continental GT 650. RRP’s own catalogue and product pages clearly position this as a Stainless Steel 304 oil cooler guard for Royal Enfield 650 Twins, giving it a big edge over generic mesh grills.

Mounted directly in front of the stock oil cooler / radiator, the guard shields the delicate fins and tubes from stones, debris and slush thrown up by traffic or off-road sections, while the precision-cut pattern maintains ample airflow so cooling performance is not compromised.

Fabricated from SS304 and treated for corrosion resistance, the guard is far more durable than mild-steel alternatives and is built to survive years of touring in Indian monsoons, coastal environments and dusty highways. It is a completely bolt-on upgrade – no cutting or welding – and uses the existing mounting points on the 650 Twins. Multiple finishes – Black Matte, Matte (satin) and Polish – let you match your bash plate, chain guard and crash bars for a clean, factory-plus build.

If you ride long distances, highway speeds or bad roads, a quality oil cooler / radiator guard is cheap insurance against one stray stone that could end your ride.

Key Features

1. Model-specific for Royal Enfield 650 Twins – designed exclusively for Interceptor 650 and Continental GT 650 oil coolers, not a universal grill.

2. Stainless Steel 304 construction – high strength and excellent rust resistance compared to painted mild-steel or aluminium meshes.

3. Optimised perforation pattern – blocks stones and debris while maintaining strong airflow to the oil cooler / radiator.

4. Three premium finishes – Black Matte, Matte stainless and high-gloss Polish to match different build themes and other RRP accessories.

5. Bolt-on fitment – uses factory mounting points; no cutting, welding or permanent modification to the frame or cooler.

6. Corrosion-resistant treatment – each guard is treated/coated for additional protection in wet and coastal conditions.

7. Improved front-end aesthetics – neat, laser-cut design with Red Rooster branding that looks far more premium than basic wire mesh.

8. Ideal pairing with bash plate & chain guard – visually ties together a full protection package for serious touring 650 owners.

FAQs

Q1. Will this RRP oil cooler guard fit the Continental GT 650 or only Interceptor 650?
Yes. RRP’s own description calls it an oil cooler guard for Royal Enfield 650 Twins, and several dealers list it for both Interceptor 650 and GT 650.

Q2. Is it made from stainless steel or mild steel?
The guard is made from Stainless Steel 304, which offers excellent strength and corrosion resistance, then treated/coated depending on the finish (Black Matte, Matte or Polish).

Q3. Do I need to remove the oil cooler to install it?
No. The guard is designed as a bolt-on part that mounts in front of the cooler using existing points. You only need basic hand tools; the cooler itself stays in place.

Q4. Will it reduce cooling efficiency or cause overheating?
The pattern is engineered to maintain airflow while stopping stones and debris. Comparable SS304 guards are widely used on Interceptor/GT 650s worldwide without overheating issues when the bike is otherwise stock and healthy.

Q5. How is this better than cheaper generic radiator grills or the RE GMA oil cooler guard?
Generic grills are often thin mild steel, poorly coated and universal fit. The RRP guard is model-specific SS304, stronger, more corrosion-resistant and better finished. Compared to the OEM/GMA guard, it offers a more premium look and greater impact resistance while still being fully bolt-on.
