Re: Braking performance
The braking on my 1999 Curvy is superb
 IME Brake Master cylinders can wear like clutches e.g you may not know inefficient they have become until you put a new one on assuming all the rest of the system is nominal. My 10 Penn'th.

Re: Braking performance
I think it depends on your viewpoint.
Like the OP when I went back to my SV after riding my GSX-R and Liz's Ducati I thought the brakes on the SV were lacking, but up until that point I never really thought they were not up to the job. I'd echo the other comment about servicing and maintenance, especially if the OP is an all weather rider...
