To help put this to rest and to add upon this post, I spoke directly with a Dunlop Agent:
"Thank you for taking the time to contact us with your Dunlop motorcycle
tire questions. Letter designations, such as "G", "J", "K", "U", etc.,
indicate an OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) variant. These vehicle
model-specific tires are subtly modified from the standard units as
requested by a specific vehicle manufacturer. It could denote a lighter
weight tire, different internal construction specifications, or even a
slightly different tread pattern. A particular OEM tire would be available
only through the vehicle manufacturer dealer''s Parts and Accessories
department."
They ARE slightly different and come out of the Sumohoto Tire Plant(sp).

Me and my friend have qualifiers that are off the shelf and they never slip ever... i mean i engine braked from 80 to like 20 in prolly 3 seconds and it didn''t slip once... haha ( i know it sounds bad, but i didnt want to blow past my driveway) I think the problem with qualifers is they are almost to soft for street value, bacause all my friends run qualfiers and like them for their grip and handling when slamming them around turns, but all in all they just don''t last 3,000 miles tops
