No.

You MUST upgrade brake fluid. I recommend Motul RBF660 which you can get at most motorbike shops for about R200/500ml which is what you'll need.

You should upgrade brake pads, but that can come later. Just be alert and when you feel your brakes starting to fade, then slow down and let them cool off.

Brake pad overheating causes progressive fade and partial loss of braking.
Brake fluid boiling in the front calipers results in catastrophic brake failure.
