What separates two riders is the last few metres before a turn, and whether the reference point either of them picked on lap one still means the same thing on lap twelve. For the front wheel of a Ducati Hypermotard 821 prepared for that kind of weekend, Accossato offers the AGPA177 plate in its EV2 racing compound, article AGPA177EV2, listed across the 2013 to 2016 seasons and summed up by the maker as a top racing compound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFront brake pads for the Ducati Hypermotard 821, 2013 to 2016 seasons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAGPA177EV2: the EV2 racing compound on Accossato's AGPA177 plate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe maker's own label for the material is a top racing compound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDrawn for heavy work that repeats with no time to cool in between\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFade is held off because the material limits how far it heats\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo pads in a box; the front of this Ducati has a caliper on each side\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eST, EV1 and ZXC serve gentler purposes on the same plate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo approval papers and no German ABE here; competition equipment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eConstruction and Material Quality\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAccossato's description of this face is short enough to quote and hard to misread: a top racing compound. It sits at the hard end of the AGPA177 range, made for a brake loaded again and again with no pause worth the name, and its resistance to fade comes from keeping its own temperature in check rather than from sheer bulk. On a Hypermotard 821, a machine that throws its weight forward the moment the lever moves, that behaviour is felt at the front wheel before anywhere else.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMarkers That Do Not Move\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery racer works from reference points: a kerb joint, a marshal's post, a patch of repaired tarmac. The value of a point is that it means the same thing every lap, and the pads are part of that promise. Early in a race, when everything is fresh, most materials behave. The test comes in the second half, once heat has gathered in pad, caliper and disc and the rider is tired enough to stop calculating. If the bite has drifted by then, the marker has become a lie and the corner arrives too quickly. A face built for competition is meant to hold the relationship between lever pressure and speed lost where it was at the start. Warm the pads deliberately on the out-lap of the Hypermotard 821 rather than discovering their cold manners at the first turn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFitment and Compatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAccossato catalogues this pad shape at the front of the Hypermotard 821 for 2013 to 2016, and the versions named are the standard 821 and the 821 SP, with ABS and without. Racing use usually means both front calipers receive fresh material on the same afternoon, which is two boxes, since each holds the pair for one caliper. The rear of the machine takes the AGPA42. Discs for the same model appear in Accossato's list as the DK053 and the DKS053.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eRoad Approval\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe have no German ABE and no approval documents for this article.
