Having recently done it, it's a very slippery slope. Unless you're buying the rotors for looks alone start with braided lines, pads then consider the rotors. If they're still not good enough, that's when you start considering the master cylinder and calipers. The default 6 pot calipers aren't the best on the market, but they're definitely not bad. How far you go also does depend on your application and your riding style.
The upgrade was worth every single cent and bit of pain involved with the feeding and care. I can out-brake most superbikes and supersports from over 270 kph into a first gear corner using two fingers dirt bike style. It's awesome fun watching bikes charge off the track into the kitty litter when they've used me as a braking reference
