On this machine the reference is the N007, 101.5 mm of friction face in the Nissin caliper. EX Race is the softer of ZCOO's two ceramic mixtures and the one that protects a DL800DE V-STROM rotor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eResists glazing under sustained pressure, which is what ends most organic pads on a DL800DE V-STROM\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFront axle only: ZCOO lists no rear pad under the N007 reference\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTested and specified for the 2023 to 2026 model years of the Suzuki DL800DE V-STROM, not extrapolated from a neighbouring year\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMachined, not moulded: the N007 plate is cut to the Nissin outline rather than pressed to an approximate one\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eZCOO specifies this reference for the Suzuki DL800DE V-STROM directly, not by cross-reference from a similar machine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProgressive rather than digital: on the Suzuki DL800DE V-STROM the first millimetre of lever travel produces the first millimetre of deceleration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eConstruction and Material Quality\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe N007 is a racing part in the way it is made, not only in the way it is sold. Heat enters a N007 at the friction face and has to leave through the plate, which is why the alloy matters as much as the mixture. That is why the N007 holds a consistent contact patch deep into its service life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003ePerformance and Feel\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eRiders moving to EX Race from an OEM organic pad usually describe the DL800DE V-STROM's brake as becoming quieter rather than stronger. Force follows the DL800DE V-STROM lever from the first millimetre of travel rather than arriving in a step. For a machine as heavy as the DL800DE V-STROM that predictability is not a luxury.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitment and Compatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eZCOO's 2026 catalogue lists this reference for the Suzuki DL800DE V-STROM across 4 model years (2023 to 2026). The N007 fits the front axle of the DL800DE V-STROM and nothing else. The same N007 shape covers 70 further machines in the 2026 catalogue. Before ordering, check that your caliper takes a pad of 101.5 mm length and 39.0 mm height.\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: Suzuki DL800DE V-STROM, 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":53638594560266,"sku":"Z-N007-EX","price":80.92,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7831\/0410\/files\/N007-produkt_dc4da16a-77b1-4af5-ad67-d49afe8e2b5e.png?v=1788779601","url":"https:\/\/inter-pace.com\/en-eu\/products\/zcoo-ex-front-brake-pads-suzuki-dl800de-v-strom","provider":"Inter-Pace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
