The extra weight moves forward as the bike slows, the fork dives further and the stopping distance grows. Accossato's list includes the DK053 for the Ducati SuperSport 950 from 2021 to 2024: a floating front disc, 320 mm in diameter and 4.5 mm thick, with a black carrier and, according to the maker, interchangeable with the original disc.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFloating front brake disc for the Ducati SuperSport 950, listed 2021 to 2024\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e320 mm outer, 72 mm inner, 4.5 mm thick\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFriction ring riveted to a black carrier\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInterchangeable with the original equipment disc, per Accossato\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMinimum thickness printed on the disc\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo discs on the front wheel; the price is for one\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlternative on Accossato's list: the thicker DKS053\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo German ABE documented; for track use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eConstruction and Material Quality\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConventional in layout, the DK053 pairs a black carrier with a 72 mm bore, which bolts to the wheel, with a 320 mm friction ring held to it by rivets that leave a controlled amount of play. That play lets the ring expand when it heats up, without warping, and lets it run centred between the pads. Accossato says it paid particular attention to the tolerances of this connection and to the materials, and that its experience with discs was gained in Superbike and in the Moto2 and Moto3 classes. The friction ring is 4.5 mm thick.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTwo-Up on the SuperSport\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRiding with a passenger changes how you should use the brakes. More mass means more energy to turn into heat at every stop, and it arrives at the front wheel as the bike pitches forward. The SuperSport 950 copes well, but it asks for more planning: brake earlier and more progressively, so that your passenger feels the deceleration build instead of being pushed into your back.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBrief the passenger before the first ride: hold on around the rider's waist, keep both feet on the pegs, brace against the tank with the hands when a stop is firm, and look over the rider's inside shoulder in bends. A passenger who stays relaxed and moves with the bike makes smooth stops much easier. For a long two-up trip on the SuperSport 950, check the front discs before leaving, and if they are close to the minimum printed on them, change them first. Accossato's own guideline is a replacement after thirty to forty thousand kilometres, earlier if the discs are worn or cracked, and a bike that regularly carries two people tends to reach that point sooner.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFitment and Compatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAcross the model years 2021 to 2024, Accossato lists the DK053 for the SuperSport 950, and next to it the thicker DKS053 for the same bike. Measure an original disc on its friction band before deciding. The front wheel carries two discs and each is sold singly. Accossato also lists its EDF099 brake lever for this SuperSport. When fitting, tighten the bolts to Ducati's torque, and check the wheel bearings while the wheel is out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eRoad Approval\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNeither a German ABE, nor a type approval can be shown for the DK053, which makes it a part for track days and racing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eScope of Delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne floating front disc DK053 with black carrier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: Floating brake disc\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart number: DK053\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePosition: Front\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOuter diameter: 320 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInner diameter: 72 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThickness: 4.5 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarrier colour: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReplacement: Interchangeable with the original equipment disc\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWear limit: Minimum thickness marked on the disc\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFitment: Ducati SUPERSPORT 950 (2021–2024)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRoad approval: None documented, track use only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Accossato","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53784313233674,"sku":"DK053N","price":176.05,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7831\/0410\/files\/DK053_094251d0-07c5-4474-9f30-878517dfb9c0.png?v=1790040397","url":"https:\/\/inter-pace.com\/products\/accossato-floating-front-brake-disc-ducati-supersport-950-2021-2024-dk053","provider":"Inter-Pace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
