Could be an interesting bike frame - combined with a CF air tank running at how many bar?  Whole new meaning to having a blow out on the bike.

For four wheelers great, but I think for a bike you would have packaging problems fitting in the volume of airtank into the whole thing.
Its mostly the reason you dont see lpg or propane powered bikes much...

if you look at the size of the engine ther wouls be enough space if you build a carbon fibre frame around to store air for a couple hundred miles
