Plenty are ridden on Sunday mornings that start dry and end in a shower halfway across a mountain range, with cold hands and a long descent still to come. Accossato lists the AGPA106 as a front pad for the Aprilia RSV4 1100 Factory from 2019 to 2024, and the set on this page uses the Sintered (ST) compound, the mix the company describes as holding a constant level of grip whether the material runs hot or cold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSintered (ST) front brake pads for the Aprilia RSV4 1100 Factory, model years 2019 to 2024\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccossato reference AGPA106, two pads per box, the set for a single caliper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThis Aprilia carries a caliper on each side of the front wheel, so a full change takes two boxes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccossato: a constant grip level at high and low temperature, with secure bite on a wet disc\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe same pad is also produced in EV1, EV2 and ceramic racing versions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRear pads for this bike: Accossato AGPA42, catalogued from 2019 to 2025\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccossato's DKS032 floating disc appears under the same model\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo German ABE or test mark on record; sold for racing and competition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eConstruction and Material Quality\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA litre-class V4 puts most of its braking effort through the front wheel, so the compound at that end sets the tone of the whole machine. Accossato's claim for ST is that the grip level stays where the rider left it, cold at the first junction of the morning or hot at the bottom of a long descent, and that water lying on the disc does not steal the bite. Around that sits the general philosophy of the pad range: retardation without rapid wear, and a friction material arranged so that temperature climbs slowly enough to keep fade at arm's length. On an RSV4 1100 Factory used on real roads rather than on a circuit, that even-handedness is worth more than any single peak value.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhen the Weather Changes Mid-Ride\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe awkward part of a wet day is rarely the rain itself. It is the half hour before it, when the first drops lift oil out of the tarmac, and the hour after it, when one side of a valley has dried and the other has not. A powerful V4 offers no help in those conditions beyond the control the rider exercises: slow down earlier than feels necessary, do the work while the bike is upright, and keep the opening movement of the lever unhurried so the fork can load before the pads take a firm hold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpray brings grit with it, and grit is what actually wears a brake out. After a wet ride, rinse the front of the RSV4 with clean water at low pressure, keep the jet away from the seals, and let the machine dry before a cover goes over it. When the wheel is next off the ground, spin it and listen, then look at the remaining material through the caliper opening and compare one side with the other; a difference between them usually means a piston needs cleaning rather than a new pad.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFitment and Compatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAccossato quotes the AGPA106 for the Aprilia RSV4 1100 Factory from 2019 to 2024. The rear listing for the same machine, the AGPA42, runs a year further to 2025, so do not be surprised that the two ends of the bike are covered by different spans. A box holds enough for one caliper and this Aprilia has two at the front, which means two boxes for a complete job, fitted on the same day so both sides wear together. Accossato also lists the DKS032 floating disc for this model, which is worth knowing if the discs are approaching the end of their service life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eRoad Approval\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe have no ABE from the German authorities and no test mark for these pads, which is why they are sold for racing and competition use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eScope of Delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne box with two sintered AGPA106 pads, the set for one front caliper; order two boxes to do both sides.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart number: AGPA106ST\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompound: Sintered (ST)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions: 102 × 44 × 7.6 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: Sintered copper friction material with abrasives and carbon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFriction coefficient: 0.46 average, 0.52 maximum (dyno test to JASO standard)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDensity: 4.50 g\/cm³ at 20 °C (+0.10 \/ −0.05)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHardness: 90 HRR (± 10 HRR, Rockwell HRR scale)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTemperature resistance: 450 °C working, 600 °C maximum peak\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMinimum shear strength: 30 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":53784008884490,"sku":"AGPA106ST","price":42.8,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7831\/0410\/files\/AGPA106_ST.png?v=1790593933","url":"https:\/\/inter-pace.com\/products\/accossato-sintered-front-brake-pads-aprilia-rsv4-1100-factory-2019-2024-agpa106st","provider":"Inter-Pace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
