1. A fearless rider who doesn't mind having a 6000-psi compressed gas
cylinder in close proximity to his family jewels.
2. A special compressor capable of filling the compact pressure bottle
to 6000 psi.

Only partially correct. The problem is NOT the saftey of the tank but
rather the shape. Currently I'm only aware of cylindrical tanks being
made. None mountable in an aceptable manner. 8^( There was a company
in england attempting to make tanks that are usable on a motorcycle.

LOL no you pull up to a filling station that delivers CNG with no
problems but good try at being a spoil sport.

OK, so what pressure does the station deliver the CNG to your tank?
And what does it take, about ten gallons of CNG to go 200 miles?
That's a rather inconvenient cylindrical tank to be straddling...
