The NIKEN GT takes the S001: a 8.8 mm stack of ceramic-sintered material across 69.5 by 50.5 mm. The S001 in EXR is the harder of the two mixtures ZCOO currently lists for the NIKEN GT.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow noise and low rotor scoring, which on an NIKEN GT means the discs outlast several sets of pads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRuns cooler at the disc than a conventional sinter, because the ceramic film it forms carries part of the load on the NIKEN GT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirect replacement for the standard Sumitomo pad on the Yamaha NIKEN GT - no shims, no spacers, no modification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e69.5 by 50.5 mm friction face at 8.8 mm total thickness, cut for the Sumitomo caliper of the Yamaha NIKEN GT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBacked by the ZCOO 2026 catalogue listing for the Yamaha NIKEN GT, 2019 to 2024\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIdentical S001 geometry to the EX Race version, so switching compounds on the NIKEN GT changes nothing about fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eConstruction and Material Quality\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe S001 shares its construction with the pads ZCOO supplies to endurance teams. The S001 plate is cut to the Sumitomo window rather than trimmed down from a larger blank. For the rider of an NIKEN GT 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\u003eThere are two ways to make a pad stronger, and on the S001 ZCOO used both. ZCOO specified a new backing plate alloy for the compound, and on a pad that reaches the top of its window repeatedly the plate is doing structural work throughout. With a passenger aboard the Yamaha NIKEN GT, predictable is worth more than powerful.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitment and Compatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor the NIKEN GT of 2019 to 2024 the S001 is the shape ZCOO lists. The same S001 shape covers 27 further machines in the 2026 catalogue. Nothing in the ZCOO range fits the rear axle of the NIKEN GT. Before ordering, check that your caliper takes a pad of 69.5 mm length and 50.5 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-S001-EXR (EAN 4950545771810)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePad code: ZRM-S001C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompound: ZCOO EXR - ceramic-sintered, successor to EXC Endurance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePad dimensions: 69.5 x 50.5 x 8.8 mm (L x H x thickness)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCaliper family: Sumitomo (Yamaha)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePosition: Front axle only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFitment: Yamaha NIKEN GT, 2019-2024\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":53638685327626,"sku":"Z-S001-EXR","price":19200.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7831\/0410\/files\/S001-produkt_8f8f2758-33c5-4625-b478-582b08654f5a.png?v=1788781085","url":"https:\/\/inter-pace.com\/en-jp\/products\/zcoo-exr-front-brake-pads-yamaha-niken-gt","provider":"Inter-Pace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
