An Aprilia RS 660 can run for years while its owner concentrates on tyres, chain and front pads, and the rear brake quietly does its share at junctions, on hill starts and while the bike is being shuffled around a garage. Accossato's AGPA42 is the rear pad for the RS 660 built from 2020 to 2025, and this listing is the Organic version, the mixture the firm sets up for long service and for leaving the disc alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRear brake pads for the Aprilia RS 660, model years 2020 to 2025\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrganic compound: long life and restrained wear on the disc, as Accossato puts it\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA practical choice for a bike used mainly on public roads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtrema and the 2022 Trofeo appear under the same rear pad\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo pads in the box, which is the pair one caliper takes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFront pads for the same machine: Accossato AGPA177\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo German ABE in our files; supplied for competition use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eConstruction and Material Quality\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe two aims Accossato states for this mixture, a long working life and a disc that is not chewed up in the process, matter more at the rear than most riders expect. A rear pad on a road bike does its work in short, light applications and can stay in the caliper for a very long time, which means the metal around it has years in which to corrode. Friction material that holds together over that kind of service is worth having. The pad is formed to the AGPA42 outline used by the rear caliper of the RS 660, and it is meant to slide freely in its guides rather than to be forced into place.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Caliper Nobody Opens\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen you do finally take the rear pads out of an RS 660, look at what you find rather than just swapping parts. Corrosion builds up where the pads sit, and a pad that cannot slide back cleanly will rub, heat the disc and wear itself out from one side. Clean the pistons carefully before pushing them back into the caliper, and push slowly, watching the fluid level in the reservoir as it rises. Check the disc for scoring and for a raised lip at its outer edge, and take a moment to look at the condition of the fluid while the cap is off. When the new pads are in, press the pedal repeatedly until it goes firm before you ride; the first application after a pad change is otherwise a long and empty one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFitment and Compatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAccossato lists the AGPA42 rear pad for the Aprilia RS 660 from 2020 to 2025, and includes the RS 660 Extrema and the RS 660 Trofeo of 2022 in the same entry. It goes into the original rear caliper in place of what is fitted. The front of the bike is covered by the AGPA177 pad in the same programme, which is worth ordering at the same time if both ends are close to their limit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eRoad Approval\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese rear pads come to us without a German ABE or any test mark, so they are sold for racing and for closed-course use rather than for the road.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eScope of Delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne box with the pair of Organic pads for the rear caliper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart number: AGPA42OR\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompound: Organic (OR)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions: 50.9 × 53.9 × 7.3 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: Organic compound: organic resins, aramid fibres, graphite and metal powders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFriction coefficient: 0.41 average (0.36 minimum, 0.46 maximum), Ranzi test to European regulation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDensity: 2.60 g\/cm³ at 20 °C (+0.10 \/ −0.05)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHardness: 100 HRR (± 10 HRR, Rockwell HRR scale)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTemperature resistance: 250 °C working, 400 °C maximum peak\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMinimum shear strength: 20 kg\/cm²\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eContents: 2 brake pads, one set for one caliper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Accossato","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53783973363978,"sku":"AGPA42OR","price":22.92,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7831\/0410\/files\/AGPA42OR-Aprilia-RS-660-platzhalter.png?v=1790584253","url":"https:\/\/inter-pace.com\/products\/accossato-organic-rear-brake-pads-aprilia-rs-660-2020-2025-agpa42or","provider":"Inter-Pace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
