I prefer the stop and go tire plugger kit. It has mushroom shaped plugs that will hold better than those twisted rope types. They work on radial and non radials. The kit I have comes with 4 CO2 canisters to inflate your tire. Have used it and it works. Great for an on the road emergency repair. This is the same type of kit that BMW used to include for tubeless tire repair on their bikes! Best of all, its in a small pouch, takes up very little room. $47 direct but you may find it elsewhere cheaper. Scroll down on their site and you will also find a compressor with gage for $35. If you want a no frills unit, try the pump that uses your engine compression to inflate your tire, also on the site.

I have the Slime Powersport compressor too. I was in Lowes today and saw an even smaller Slime pump for $13. It had a gauge on it. Don't know what model it was. They were in the tool section.

+1 Slime 5001 kit.
I have a RKC so I also got a bottle of slime for tubes (it only comes with tubeless slime).
I carry both the tubeless and tube bottles in case another rider needs it.

Also ....... as indicated by frenchbiker, if you use your tender's connector you 'must' replace it's fuse with at least a 10 amp, (stock size for the compressor pigtails) or it will blow the first time you need the compressor ...... which could turn a really well planned 'and' provisioned trip into a total "WTF!!".
