Default Natural Gas Power For Honda Generator

I have a 6500 watt auto-gas powered Honda Inverter. It can run the whole place so capacity is no issue. I have a natural gas connection to my house, and my plumber has no problem tapping that for a generator. It seems that running this unit on NG would be a much better fuel source than fooling around with 5 gallon cans of gas that present a certain hazard, require pouring liquids, go stale, and in times of shortage everyone will be lined up to buy ($) and hoard.

There appear to be some 'tri-power' carburetor conversions to allow the use of LPG, NG, and auto fuel on the internet. My local Honda dealer's only comment was that it was against federal law--which sounds fishy to me.

If anyone has insights or experience with this I would like to hear of it.

Thanks.
