I just can't believe all the stories here, and yet Sherri has ridden her bike round the world with almost no hiccups (until recently, apparently some mechanic inflicted motor trouble). It does not seem that she's had any trouble with the fuel injection or electronics.
Thoughts?

You can have a look at what fuel system the KTM team runs in long distance races to know how much they trust the fuel injection system themselves....

As long as you AA is just a cell phone call away, sure thing. But how many times has your 690 been outside of the US Albie?
