Tony has nailed it.... perhaps the supplier is thinking about the B-King, which has the hugely excellent Nissin radial calipers, and Nissin radial master cylinder.
Strongly, emphatically concur that the K8 should have received this same hardware. However, their parts bin is overflowing with Tokico radial calipers from their GSXR1000 line, so it appears to have been a cost-saving initiative.
Not that the Tokico radial calipers are all *that* terrible, mind you... but the Nissin is a superior component, IMO.
