I always say the same thing about this, adding more brake without improving the forks isn't a great plan. If you've got sorted forks already, then they're great, but the stock SV forks can be overwhelmed by standard brakes if you weigh over about 11 stone anyway. I reckon that for many folks, the best brake upgrade they can do is to work on the suspension.
Put it a different way, having tried both I reckon I'd stop faster with standard calipers and forks with a basic upgrade- springs and oil- than I would with standard forks and GSXR calipers. Stopping power's nothing if you can't put it on the tarmac.
