Technology has its place but not hundreds of miles from nowhere !

I really dont think you will have a problem with fuel... hundreds are using FI bikes all around the world. Why not just use a filter bag in your fuel spout or an inline filter in the pipework. ???
By all means, if you want to do it, then have a go but it would be far cheaper, easier and stress free to just buy an XT600E in the first place.
So why not swap for an XT600E ??
P.S. carb bikes still have problems with dirty fuel. It's often easy to clean debris out of a filter on an FI bike than stripping a carb !!
