For the Kawasaki Z H2 SE of 2021 to 2026 that shape is the B005, a 102.2 by 42.0 mm face on a laser-cut backing plate. The compound is EX Race, which on the Kawasaki Z H2 SE builds force with the lever instead of ahead of it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo proprietary tooling needed: the B005 drops into the Brembo caliper the Z H2 SE already has\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLever feel on the Z H2 SE stays linear from the first millimetre of travel to full pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConsistent lever travel as the pad thins, so the bite point on the Z H2 SE does not creep between services\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with the standard Brembo retaining pin and spring of the Z H2 SE - nothing else to buy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne pack holds the two pads for a single caliper - a Z H2 SE with twin front discs therefore needs two packs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePredictable in the wet, because the compound does not need temperature to start working on a Z H2 SE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eConstruction and Material Quality\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Kawasaki Z H2 SE pad is made the way ZCOO makes its competition references. Nothing about the B005 is stamped: the plate is cut, the ceramic is sintered on, and the bond is made under pressure. 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.\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 Kawasaki Z H2 SE that is the point. The harder EXC Endurance mixture bit sooner and lasted longer, but asked considerably more of a Z H2 SE disc than the B005 in EX Race does. For a Z H2 SE that is the difference between a hard stop and a fright.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitment and Compatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe B005 is ZCOO's listed reference for the Kawasaki Z H2 SE between 2021 and 2026. 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. Front axle exclusively - there is no rear B005.\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: Kawasaki Z H2 SE, 2021-2026\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":53638213304586,"sku":"Z-B005-EX","price":80.64,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7831\/0410\/files\/B005-produkt_2cd3fe84-88b7-4f6a-a311-ff6c96d324e2.png?v=1788778185","url":"https:\/\/inter-pace.com\/en-us\/products\/zcoo-ex-front-brake-pads-kawasaki-z-h2-se","provider":"Inter-Pace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
