·After reading tsc17 thread about upgrading the brakes by using Tokico calipers from the late model GSXR (04, 05, 06) or Katana, I started searching e-bay for 600/750/1000 GSXR calipers and master cylinders. I found a nice NEW complete set with lines at a reasonable price... and got out bid by AlaskanS3. The price went up, up, UP, until I realized it was him. Remind me not to turn my back on him - he's tenacious! 
I wound up finding a set of calipers for USD $31.00, and bolts for $12.50. Now I just need to find a master cylinder that allows keeping the Pazzo Levers. If they can't be made to work on the Suzuki MC, I may wind up ordering a new shorty brake lever for the Suzy part. A set of banjos and lines and this will be a cheap upgrade.
Side note - my 2005 bike has not had problems that many describe with soft lever feel, but I am not a fan of the delayed braking the stock system offers.
