Description
GPFAX Sintered Road Race Brake Pads are for RACE ONLY use. This is a blend of brake pad that has higher friction and far better grip than any other brake product on the market.
GPFAX Sintered Road Race Brake Pads have by far the highest known friction with a measurement between 0.6 and 0.7 and deliver the most amazing brake effect. Because of this factor, they are unsuitable for street use or for road tyres.
Zero brake fade is guaranteed and the heat stability of these brake pads is perfect leaving the racer with high confidence and a product that can be used over numerous races.
GPFAX Sintered Road Race brake pads are a closed circuit use pad only and street/highway riding with this material is highly inadvisable and dangerous. Such high friction levels as delivered by these pads are for ideal track conditions with race tyres or slicks on prepared asphalt surfaces and NOT for use with highway tires or on the highway. This material is not ECE R 90 approved nor TUV tested with a German ABE and use on the highway is therefore illegal in many countries.
FEATURES
- Highest known friction level
- NOT TUV tested or ECE R 90 street legal
- Lifetime performance guarantee
NOTE: For racetrack use ONLY, not intended for street use.

Vehicle Information
Yamaha YZF-R3 Motorcycle - Street (2015-2026)
The Yamaha YZF-R3, a lightweight and accessible sport motorcycle, was introduced in 2015 and continues production through 2026. It is powered by a consistent 321cc liquid-cooled, parallel-twin engine, delivering approximately 42 horsepower. Designed for both new and experienced riders, it combines performance with agile handling. While its core 321cc engine has remained consistent, the YZF-R3 has received several significant updates. In 2019, it underwent a major refresh, featuring a MotoGP-inspired fairing redesign, 37mm KYB inverted front forks, improved ergonomics with lowered handlebars, and an assist and slipper clutch. Another substantial update is planned for 2025, introducing a new aerodynamic fairing with integrated winglets, EURO 5+ compliance, and electronic enhancements, including Y-Connect smartphone connectivity. Special editions like the World GP 60th Anniversary (2022) and 70th Anniversary (2026) have also been offered. Frequently Asked Questions:
