DescriptionThe whole story

The Suzuki GSX-R 1000 rewards a rider who holds the brake deep and releases it in one motion. The GSX-R 1000 takes the B005: a 8.05 mm stack of ceramic-sintered material across 102.2 by 42.0 mm. On the GSX-R 1000 that shape comes in EX Race, the mixture ZCOO sells for road, trackday and club racing rather than for sprint distance alone.

Key Features

  • Country of origin Japan; ZCOO does not source its friction material outside its own plant
  • Supplied as a pack of two - the exact set the Brembo caliper of the GSX-R 1000 takes
  • Fits the Brembo caliper the Suzuki GSX-R 1000 left the factory with - no aftermarket caliper required
  • Consistent across the whole 15-year listing for the GSX-R 1000, so a used bike takes the same reference as a new one
  • The Brembo caliper spreads under peak pressure; the B005 plate is cut stiff enough to keep the friction face flat while it does
  • Stable friction from the first squeeze to the wear limit, so the GSX-R 1000 brakes the same on a cold morning and at the bottom of a pass

Construction and Material Quality

The B005 shares its construction with the pads ZCOO supplies to endurance teams. Bonding, not gluing: the ceramic layer of the B005 is fused to the plate under pressure. On the GSX-R 1000 that translates into a lever position which does not creep as the pad thins.

Performance and Feel

EX Race trades a little initial aggression for a friction level that does not move on the Suzuki GSX-R 1000. Force follows the GSX-R 1000 lever from the first millimetre of travel rather than arriving in a step. For a GSX-R 1000 on track that is the difference between running out of brake and running out of tyre.

Fitment and Compatibility

ZCOO's fitment data gives the B005 for the GSX-R 1000 built between 2012 and 2026. The same B005 shape covers 117 further machines in the 2026 catalogue. Before ordering, check that your caliper takes a pad of 102.2 mm length and 42.0 mm height. Front axle exclusively - there is no rear B005.

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.
