DescriptionThe whole story▼

Yamaha's FZ8 is a naked middleweight with a four-cylinder engine, and for many owners it was the step up from a smaller first bike. A lot of them now use it as reliable daily transport. For that rider, Accossato makes AGPA97 in its Organic (OR) compound, a front pad that the manufacturer says keeps performing over a long life while reducing disc wear. It is catalogued for the FZ8 800 from 2010 to 2015.

Key Features

  • Front pad AGPA97 by Accossato, organic mix (OR)
  • Yamaha FZ8, model years 2010-2015
  • Accossato: performance that lasts, less disc wear
  • Soft initial bite that suits a relaxed riding style
  • Little noise at low speed
  • One box, two pads, one front caliper
  • Four further compounds exist for AGPA97: ST, EV1, EV2, ZXC

Construction and Material Quality

Endurance and rotor care are what Accossato claims for the organic mix. On a bike that is well into its second decade, where a new pair of discs is a noticeable expense, those claims translate into money saved. Across all its pads, the company also targets a slow rate of wear, heat that stays low enough to avoid fading and robust stopping.

Workhorse Middleweight

Plenty of FZ8s have settled into a routine: a daily ride to work, a Saturday errand, a Sunday loop. None of that heats the front brakes much. An organic pad is at home in exactly that situation, giving a gentle, predictable bite on the first cold stop of the morning and staying quiet while doing it. Riders coming up from a smaller bike also tend to like a front brake that builds progressively instead of grabbing. If you keep your FZ8 on the road through the winter, the ST compound deals better with wet and cold; for a quicker pace on country roads there is EV1.

Fitment and Compatibility

AGPA97 is the pad Accossato names for the FZ8 800 front brake between 2010 and 2015. The rear of the FZ8 uses AGPP88, and Accossato also has the DK062 brake disc for this bike. The FZ8 has twin front calipers, one box per caliper, so a full change takes two. Always renew both sides together. Push the pistons back only after cleaning them, keep fingers off the rotor faces and pump the lever to full pressure. Bed the pads in with a handful of easy stops.

Road Approval

For AGPA97OR we have neither an ABE nor any German test documentation. It is therefore sold for race and competition use.
