Shortly Levers, Stainless or Kevlar lines, and better pads. You dont need to get into the master cylinders, calipers, and rotors unless your super hardcore and have money to spend.

+1, I'd also do rotors though.

i have pazzo levers. they have 6 different adjustments for clutch and brake. that way you can get your clutching and breaking the way you want.
