Try to secure the filter where it can't bounce around. Where mine is located, it never gets above room temperature.

What if you ran it around the engine? You could put some of the heat shields on the fuel line and secure the filter to the shock tower or roll cage.
I would definitely keep it, it's cheap insurance against engine damage. I don't know about you but I don't refuel in @Rolex's waxing room so there's always a chance for crap to get in my tank.
No problem, I can take ideas and criticism. Thats what forums are for.
Actually I see what it appears like in the photos. But actually it sits more right over top of the fuel tank lid so I dont think it is in danger of coming in contact with the cooling head. Actually I'm not sure it is even necessary and I might just remove it all together.
