DescriptionThe whole story▼
Middleweight twins have become a popular class in club racing, and the Suzuki GSX-8R, with its fairing and compact chassis, is a natural candidate for that kind of competition. AGPA38 in the EV2 racing mixture is Accossato's front pad for the GSX-8R from 2024 to 2026. It is made for racers who need the front brake to perform through practice, qualifying and races, with the lever arriving at the same point every lap.

Construction and Material Quality
Accossato, which was founded in Moncalieri near Turin in 1969, describes EV2 as a top racing compound. There is no further detail, but the name leaves no doubt about the pad's job. Its general claims of slow wear, controlled heat and high stopping power apply as well.
Racing a Middleweight Twin
In twin-cylinder racing classes, bikes are closely matched and races are often decided on the brakes. Riders of the GSX-8R look for a front brake that lets them brake late, trail into the apex and release precisely. EV2 is designed for that job. Before the weekend, bleed the brakes with fresh fluid and fit new pads. During the first practice session, bed them in with progressively harder stops. Between sessions, check pad thickness, look for glazing and note any change in lever travel. After the last race, clean the calipers and check the discs for cracks or uneven wear.
Keep a spare set in the pit box, and replace both front sides together so the calipers stay balanced. Close racing in a twin class often means braking side by side with another rider, and a lever that behaves the same on the last lap as on the first gives the confidence to hold a line into the corner.
Fitment and Compatibility
AGPA38 is listed by Accossato for the GSX-8R 800 from 2024 to 2026. The GSX-8R uses two front calipers, so two boxes are needed. The rear pad is AGPP88. The same front plate is also offered as Sintered, EV1 and ZXC.
Road Approval
No ABE or German approval documents for AGPA38EV2 are available to us. The pads are sold for competition.
Scope of Delivery
