DescriptionThe whole story▼
Derived directly from Brembo's involvement in MotoGP, Moto2, Moto3 and Superbike World Championship programmes, the Z04 compound represents a certified, race-proven brake pad formulation engineered for riders who demand uncompromising stopping power. Designed specifically for the Honda CBR 1000 RR SC77 SP1 and SP2 (2017–2019), these pads deliver absolute braking control from the very first application, with no compromise in performance as they approach the wear limit.
Key Features
- Race-derived Z04 compound, proven across MotoGP, Moto2, Moto3 and SBK competition — safety backed by the highest levels of motorsport validation.
- Exceptional high-temperature resistance maintains consistent bite and modulation under sustained, extreme braking loads on track or road.
- Zero bedding-in required — ready to perform at full capacity straight out of the box, critical for track day and race use.
- Low wear rate ensures long service life without sacrificing braking performance at any point in the pad's life.
- Precision dimensions (102.2 mm × 41.7 mm × 7.9 mm) guarantee a correct, rattle-free fit in the OEM caliper.
- Fitment-specific design — engineered exclusively for the Honda CBR 1000 RR SC77 SP1 and SP2, ensuring optimal caliper contact geometry.
Safety & Certification
The Z04 compound is not a street pad repurposed for occasional track use — it is a dedicated racing formulation developed and validated under the rigorous demands of professional motorsport. Brembo's engineering pedigree, built across decades at the front of MotoGP and World Superbike, means the Z04 has been subjected to thermal and friction testing far beyond anything encountered in road riding. Every batch is manufactured to the same exacting quality standards that supply factory racing teams, giving you a quantifiable safety margin whether you are chasing lap times or simply demanding the best from your SP-spec Honda on the road.
Performance on Road & Track
The Z04 compound achieves a rare balance: strong, progressive initial bite with fine modulation throughout the lever travel. Where conventional high-performance pads may fade or become unpredictable as heat builds, the Z04 maintains a consistent friction coefficient, giving the rider confidence to brake later and harder into corners. The no-bedding-in characteristic is particularly valuable at circuit days, where cold tyres and cold brakes in the opening laps are a genuine safety consideration — the Z04 works from the very first stop.
Wear Behaviour
Low wear rate is engineered into the compound, not achieved by compromising friction performance. Riders can expect extended service intervals compared to many racing-specification alternatives, while the pad continues to perform identically from new through to the wear indicator limit.
Fitment & Compatibility
These pads are designed exclusively for the Honda CBR 1000 RR SC77 SP1 and SP2. They are not compatible with the standard (non-SP) CBR 1000 RR of the same period, which uses a different front brake caliper specification. Always confirm the SC77 SP1 or SP2 designation on your V5/title document before fitting.
