Hello Alison
Being also non technical, I would have the bike serviced before the trip, then take off and enjoy yourselves!
Mechanics and other workers in Morocco have a real 'can do' attitude to fixing things, so your only worry is getting to the nearest town. I've done more than 2000 miles offroad in Morocco, mainly on 1200GS and 1200GSA and the only time I had a problem with a flat tyre was on my XR400, so I'd suggest you stick heavy duty tubes in your tyres.
