ZCOO cuts the B003 at 35.2 by 40.5 mm to fill the Brembo caliper window of the COMMANDO 961 SF. EX Race is ZCOO's everyday racing compound, and on a COMMANDO 961 SF it is unusually kind to the discs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo warm-up needed: the B003 works at the first cold stop of the day, which is why ZCOO sells EX Race for road as well as circuit use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe ceramic layer is sintered to the plate rather than pressed against it, which is what keeps the B003 together at the top of its temperature range\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo bedding-in ritual: the B003 reaches its working friction level within the first few stops\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirect replacement for the standard Brembo pad on the Norton COMMANDO 961 SF - no shims, no spacers, no modification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo ECE R90 type approval is documented for this compound - treat the B003 as a track and competition part\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eForms a thin ceramic film on the rotor in use, so disc wear on the Norton COMMANDO 961 SF stays far below what a conventional sintered race pad causes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eConstruction and Material Quality\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe B003 is built on the same platform as ZCOO's endurance-racing references. Because the B003 is sintered rather than resin-bonded, there is no binder to cook out at the top of the range. That is why the B003 holds a consistent contact patch deep into its service life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003ePerformance and Feel\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eBetween roughly zero and 600 degrees the B003 holds a near-constant friction coefficient. It works from cold without a warm-up lap and does not turn grabby once the B003 is hot. A grabby pad on a short-wheelbase COMMANDO 961 SF is not merely uncomfortable - it is destabilising.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitment and Compatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor the COMMANDO 961 SF of 2013 to 2015 the B003 is the shape ZCOO lists. Front axle only; the B003 has no rear counterpart in the ZCOO programme. The same B003 shape covers 9 further machines in the 2026 catalogue. Before ordering, check that your caliper takes a pad of 35.2 mm length and 40.5 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-B003-EX (EAN 4950545750037)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePad code: ZRM-B003C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompound: ZCOO EX Race - ceramic-sintered\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePad dimensions: 35.2 x 40.5 x 7.55 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: Norton COMMANDO 961 SF, 2013-2015\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":53638567100682,"sku":"Z-B003-EX","price":74.8,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7831\/0410\/files\/B003-produkt_a5a82626-c6ae-482e-bf6d-b1b904e4286c.png?v=1788779244","url":"https:\/\/inter-pace.com\/en-mz\/products\/zcoo-ex-front-brake-pads-norton-commando-961-sf","provider":"Inter-Pace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
