For reserve knowledge on how to change the fuel filter, you should google the youtube video: How to change a fuel filter | V-Strom. The video is for the 1st gen Wee, which I think that it should help explain how to replace the low pressure / strainer filter on your model, if you ever plan to do so in the future.
Note, that there is also a high pressure fuel filter in the upper section of the fuel pump, but is not a simple strainer like that of the low pressure fuel filter.
