Description
Brushed Matte Performance Slip-On Exhaust for Interceptor 650 & Continental GT 650
The Red Rooster Matte Stellar Exhaust is engineered for Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 and Continental GT 650 riders who prefer understated performance with a rugged, tool-grade aesthetic. Built from Grade 304 stainless steel and finished in a brushed, non-reflective matte texture, the Matte Stellar combines free-flow performance gains with a durable, corrosion-resistant construction designed for long-term ownership.
This variant is intended for riders who value mechanical honesty over shine. It delivers the signature Red Rooster exhaust character — deep, throaty, and engaging — while maintaining a low-glare finish that blends seamlessly into both classic and modern builds.
Performance without flash. Presence without excess.
Grade 304 Stainless Steel Construction
The Matte Stellar is manufactured using premium Grade 304 stainless steel, chosen for its durability and resistance to corrosion under repeated thermal stress.
Material advantages include:
• High resistance to oxidation
• Structural stability under heat cycling
• Long-term durability in humid or dusty conditions
• Corrosion-proof stainless composition
Grade 304 stainless is widely used in performance exhaust systems because it maintains structural integrity under high exhaust temperatures and constant vibration exposure.
This ensures the exhaust remains reliable across years of riding.
Brushed Matte Finish – Stealth & Functional
The brushed matte surface provides a non-reflective, industrial appearance that complements blacked-out builds and minimalist styling themes.
Finish characteristics include:
• Non-glare surface
• Scratch-tolerant brushed texture
• Rugged, tool-grade aesthetic
• Resistance to visible swirl marks
Unlike polished surfaces, the brushed finish hides minor wear patterns better over time, making it ideal for riders who put serious miles on their motorcycles.
The finish is engineered to maintain appearance even after prolonged heat exposure.
Free-Flow Internal Architecture
At the core of the Matte Stellar is Red Rooster’s proven free-flow internal structure. Designed to reduce restrictive back pressure, the system improves exhaust gas evacuation efficiency compared to stock mufflers.
Performance-oriented characteristics may include:
• Sharper throttle response
• Improved mid-range torque feel
• Freer engine breathing
• More responsive acceleration
The internal design is tuned specifically for the 650 twin-cylinder platform to enhance rideability without sacrificing smoothness.
Actual gains depend on riding conditions, fuel quality, altitude, and engine configuration.
No ECU remap is required for installation.
Deep, Throaty Acoustic Character
The Matte Stellar delivers the recognizable Red Rooster exhaust tone — rich, controlled, and mechanically engaging.
Sound characteristics may include:
• Strong low-frequency rumble
• Balanced cruising tone without harshness
• Controlled resonance at highway RPM
• Sporty acceleration note
The system is engineered to provide depth without excessive drone, making it suitable for both city riding and extended highway use.
Sound output may vary depending on riding conditions and local regulations.
Lightweight & TIG-Welded Precision
The exhaust features TIG-welded joints to ensure structural consistency and long-term durability.
TIG welding provides:
• Strong, precise weld seams
• High vibration resistance
• Clean construction lines
• Long-term reliability
The lightweight structure contributes to reduced rear-end bulk compared to many stock systems, potentially improving mass distribution.
Handling impact varies depending on full motorcycle setup.
