ZCOO answers with the B005, 102.2 by 42.0 mm of ceramic-sintered friction material cut for the Brembo caliper. The B005 in EX Race trim is the version ZCOO builds for riders who value feel over first bite.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuiet in normal use and low on dust, so the GSX-S1000 KATANA does not pay for its brakes in wheel cleaning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for trackday use on the GSX-S1000 KATANA without a change of pad before the session\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart number Z-B005-EX, EAN 4950545767882\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe friction material and the B005 plate are made in the same Japanese plant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eListed for the Suzuki GSX-S1000 KATANA across 8 model years (2019 to 2026)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePredictable in the wet, because the compound does not need temperature to start working on a GSX-S1000 KATANA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eConstruction and Material Quality\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe B005 is built on the same platform as ZCOO's endurance-racing references. Sintering fuses the ceramic to the plate, which is what lets the B005 hold together where an organic pad has begun to break down. The effect is a B005 that presents the same geometry to the disc near the wear limit as it did new.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003ePerformance and Feel\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat the B005 in EX Race buys is predictability, not a headline figure. The lever pressure needed for a given deceleration barely moves as heat builds through a session on the GSX-S1000 KATANA. On an unfaired machine like the Suzuki GSX-S1000 KATANA that is a control argument, not a comfort one.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitment and Compatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eZCOO's 2026 catalogue lists this reference for the Suzuki GSX-S1000 KATANA across 8 model years (2019 to 2026). The B005 fits the front axle of the GSX-S1000 KATANA and nothing else. 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.\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-B005-EX (EAN 4950545767882)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePad code: ZRM-B005C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompound: ZCOO EX Race - ceramic-sintered\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePad dimensions: 102.2 x 42.0 x 8.05 mm (L x H x thickness)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCaliper family: Brembo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePosition: Front axle only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFitment: Suzuki GSX-S1000 KATANA, 2019-2026\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":53638612222218,"sku":"Z-B005-EX","price":328.0,"currency_code":"MYR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7831\/0410\/files\/B005-produkt_45fbc7d6-a084-4790-a7d5-b00d532c2bce.png?v=1788779712","url":"https:\/\/inter-pace.com\/en-my\/products\/zcoo-ex-front-brake-pads-suzuki-gsx-s1000-katana","provider":"Inter-Pace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
