I'm not sure if 2013s were a black hole, but my 2013 300 brakes suck and my 2014 200 brakes rock. Both have the stock banjo. Go figure.

I did try to put a Brembo setup from my Husky TXC 250 on it and it fit without mods except that the rotor barely grazed the inside of the caliper. I didn't feel like it improved the brakes all that much even though the same setup was awesome on the Husky. Maybe the rotor is part of the problem. I swapped everything back and just worked on using a little less front brake and more back.

Richard Wilson at House of Horsepower in OKC swears he has the cure to the ailing GG brakes. Something about a different rotor (not sure which one) and OEM Yamaha pads. He might could hook you up with some info.
