Actually won't hurt the engine at all in any amount you get from the top of the filter. Side benifits are higher octain, as water slows the fuel burn rate. It will also clean the piston tops if you ride for days in it. Back in the 70s we used water injection in order to increase the ignition timing, get more power and better fuel economy. No ill effects were noted. In the case of your bike if you have a k&n style it will need to be reoiled.
