I think fuel is fuel, as long as the mixture is right it should work. The challenging thing is making sure the carburetors sit in the correct position in order to keep the float bowls level. FI bikes don't care what angle the injector is sitting or the angle of the intake ports. But carburetors do. You could end up with float levels that are too low or too high.
