The pad is the N007, cut at 101.5 by 39.0 mm to sit square in the Nissin caliper of the CL 500. EX Race is ZCOO's everyday racing compound, and on a CL 500 it is unusually kind to the discs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCountry of origin Japan; ZCOO does not source its friction material outside its own plant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe friction blocks are separated so the N007 material can expand into the gaps rather than against itself\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe N007 is one of 16 shapes ZCOO builds; this is the one your Nissin caliper takes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStable friction from the first squeeze to the wear limit, so the CL 500 brakes the same on a cold morning and at the bottom of a pass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe N007 shape also serves 70 further machines in the ZCOO 2026 catalogue, so availability stays good\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDeveloped on the same ceramic platform ZCOO supplies to endurance teams at Suzuka and the Bol d'Or\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eConstruction and Material Quality\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eLook behind the friction face of the N007 and the engineering is all about stiffness. The friction layer of the N007 is bonded by a joining process Okada Corporation developed against the failure that ends most sintered pads. For the rider of a CL 500 the whole of that engineering shows up as one thing: a lever that means the same on the last stop as on the first.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003ePerformance and Feel\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eConsistency is the entire argument for the N007 in EX Race form. That band covers everything a CL 500 meets, from a cold first stop to a long descent. For a CL 500 that is the difference between a hard stop and a fright.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitment and Compatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eZCOO's fitment data gives the N007 for the CL 500 built between 2023 and 2026. Before ordering, check that your caliper takes a pad of 101.5 mm length and 39.0 mm height. The same N007 shape covers 70 further machines in the 2026 catalogue. The reference is a front pad; ZCOO lists no rear equivalent.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eRoad Approval\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo ECE R90 type approval is documented for this pad. It appears neither in ZCOO's own catalogue nor on the European distributor's site, and no approval number is printed on the packaging data available to us. ZCOO itself describes the compound as suited to competition machines and road machines alike, but that is a description of the mixture, not a type approval. Until the distributor confirms an approval in writing, treat this as a track and competition part: in Germany a replacement brake pad without ECE R90 approval may not be fitted to a motorcycle used on public roads. Ask us before ordering if you need this clarified for your machine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart number: Z-N007-EX (EAN 4950545750105)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePad code: ZRM-N007ZM_A + ZRM-N007ZM_B\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompound: ZCOO EX Race - ceramic-sintered\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePad dimensions: ZRM-N007ZM_A + ZRM-N007ZM_B 101.5 x 39.0 x 8.0 mm and ZRM-N007ZM_B 101.5 x 39.0 x 8.0 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCaliper family: Nissin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePosition: Front axle only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFitment: Honda CL 500, 2023-2026\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eContents per pack: 1 set = 2 pads for one caliper; a machine with twin front discs needs two packs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRoad approval: No ECE R90 type approval documented - track and competition use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufacturer: Okada Corporation, Japan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ZCOO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53637900370186,"sku":"Z-N007-EX","price":65.25,"currency_code":"CHF","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7831\/0410\/files\/N007-produkt_6760bfe4-dc6d-4ac4-9ac4-d78875465e29.png?v=1788777071","url":"https:\/\/inter-pace.com\/en-ch\/products\/zcoo-ex-front-brake-pads-honda-cl-500","provider":"Inter-Pace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
