DescriptionThe whole story

A big naked like the Kawasaki Z900 stops with its front wheel and very little else. The N005 is ZCOO's shape for the Nissin caliper of the Kawasaki Z900, 70.0 mm long and 7.2 mm thick. The N005 carries EX Race, the control-oriented of ZCOO's two ceramic mixtures.

Key Features

  • No bedding-in ritual: the N005 reaches its working friction level within the first few stops
  • Two pads per pack, matched as a set for one Nissin caliper
  • 70.0 by 49.3 mm friction face at 7.2 mm total thickness, cut for the Nissin caliper of the Kawasaki Z900
  • The N005 is made by Okada Corporation in Japan, the manufacturer behind ZCOO's endurance-racing programme
  • No ECE R90 type approval is documented for this compound - treat the N005 as a track and competition part
  • Suits the Z900 on the road as readily as on a circuit, which is what separates the ceramic platform from a pure race sinter

Construction and Material Quality

Two things define how a N005 behaves: the ceramic mixture and the plate under it. At 7.2 mm the N005 carries its ceramic layer on a plate cut to fill the Nissin caliper window exactly. For the rider of a Z900 the whole of that engineering shows up as one thing: a lever that means the same on the last stop as on the first.

Performance and Feel

The useful measure of a Z900 pad is not one hard stop but a hundred ordinary ones. That band covers everything a Z900 meets, from a cold first stop to a long descent. On the Kawasaki Z900 that turns a violent event into a metered one.

Fitment and Compatibility

Fitment covers the Kawasaki Z900 from 2017 to 2024 with the Nissin caliper. Before ordering, check that your caliper takes a pad of 70.0 mm length and 49.3 mm height. The same N005 shape covers 19 further machines in the 2026 catalogue. The reference is a front pad; ZCOO lists no rear equivalent.

Road Approval

No 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.
