DescriptionThe whole story

Three laps is all a hard-ridden NINJA H2R needs to put its front brake at the top of its window. The pad is the B005, cut at 102.2 by 42.0 mm to sit square in the Brembo caliper of the NINJA H2R. EX Race is ZCOO's everyday racing compound, and on an NINJA H2R it is unusually kind to the discs.

Key Features

  • Fits the Brembo caliper the Kawasaki NINJA H2R left the factory with - no aftermarket caliper required
  • The ceramic layer is sintered to the plate rather than pressed against it, which is what keeps the B005 together at the top of its temperature range
  • Ceramic sintering rather than a resin binder, so there is nothing in the B005 to cook out at the top of the range
  • Even pressure distribution across the 102.2 by 42.0 mm face from new to the wear limit
  • The friction blocks are separated so the B005 material can expand into the gaps rather than against itself
  • EX Race is the softer of ZCOO's two ceramic mixtures, chosen for feel on a machine like the NINJA H2R rather than outright initial aggression

Construction and Material Quality

The B005 is made by Okada Corporation in Japan. The ceramic content is what lets the B005 form a protective film on an NINJA H2R disc instead of abrading it. Together they remove the two things that normally end a sintered pad, and the B005 is built against both: fade at the top of the range, and the friction layer lifting away.

Performance and Feel

Fitted to an NINJA H2R, EX Race changes how the brake behaves rather than how hard it stops. The lever pressure needed for a given deceleration barely moves as heat builds through a session on the NINJA H2R. On a machine ridden as hard as the NINJA H2R, a pad whose behaviour does not drift is worth more than one that is briefly stronger.

Fitment and Compatibility

ZCOO's fitment data gives the B005 for the NINJA H2R built between 2015 and 2023. The same B005 shape covers 117 further machines in the 2026 catalogue. Front axle only. Before ordering, check that your caliper takes a pad of 102.2 mm length and 42.0 mm height.

Road Approval

No 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.
