That is the job of the N007: 101.5 by 39.0 mm of ceramic-sintered material, 8.0 mm deep, in the Nissin caliper. The N007 carries EX Race, the control-oriented of ZCOO's two ceramic mixtures.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits the Nissin caliper the Honda CB500F left the factory with - no aftermarket caliper required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCeramic sintering rather than a resin binder, so there is nothing in the N007 to cook out at the top of the range\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e101.5 by 39.0 mm friction face at 8.0 mm total thickness, cut for the Nissin caliper of the Honda CB500F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe N007 is made by Okada Corporation in Japan, the manufacturer behind ZCOO's endurance-racing programme\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Nissin caliper spreads under peak pressure; the N007 plate is cut stiff enough to keep the friction face flat while it does\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe ceramic layer is sintered to the plate rather than pressed against it, which is what keeps the N007 together at the top of its temperature range\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eConstruction and Material Quality\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe N007 shares its construction with the pads ZCOO supplies to endurance teams. The friction layer of the N007 is bonded by a joining process Okada Corporation developed against the failure that ends most sintered pads. None of it is visible once the N007 is in the Nissin caliper, which is precisely the point.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003ePerformance and Feel\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEX Race is the control-oriented of ZCOO's two ceramic compounds, and on the Honda CB500F that is the point. The compound lays a thin ceramic film on the rotor as it beds, which is why the Honda CB500F sees far less disc wear than a conventional sinter would cause. Which matters most on a CB500F, where the rider's own weight is part of the braking load.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitment and Compatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis reference is catalogued for the Nissin-equipped Honda CB500F, 2013 to 2021. Before ordering, check that your caliper takes a pad of 101.5 mm length and 39.0 mm height. The N007 is a front pad only. The same N007 shape covers 70 further machines in the 2026 catalogue.\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: Honda CB500F, 2013-2021\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":53637891162378,"sku":"Z-N007-EX","price":2953.0,"currency_code":"NIO","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7831\/0410\/files\/N007-produkt_6059cb65-2f25-4f93-a0e6-fa4460fc663e.png?v=1788776969","url":"https:\/\/inter-pace.com\/en-ni\/products\/zcoo-ex-front-brake-pads-honda-cb500f","provider":"Inter-Pace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
