Small air pump

[MIKE46]

Since taking delivery of my R1200R Classic I find that, with the bike having spoked wheels and inner tubes, I am having to check and adjust the tyre pressures before each ride whereas with my previous R1200R I only had to do it every month. I would like to find a small air pump to carry with me for use on longer trips. Has any one any recommendations?

I got a small pump from here http://motopumps.com/

The one I carry under my seat is made by Slime. I took it out of the carrying case so that it fits better. It comes with several plug types, and the one I left with the bike is the SAE plug that is the same as the pigtail I have on the battery for the charger.

Like John said, a Slime pump fits under the seat, I carry mine in a ziplock bag with a SAE plug I replaced the original cigarette lighter plug with. For $10 it's proven to be very useful, mine's the Slime Top Up model.
I'm curious, why the need to check the air pressures daily with a tube vs tubeless, there's either a leak or there's not. Adjusting pressures regularly would seem to suggest you have a leak and should replace the tube. Both wheels?

Aerostitch makes a great small pump for $40.00

I'm with Joe, tubes shouldn't be leaking. Easy to check, make sure the valves are screwed in all the way. Else you need a large tub of water...

I have this one and used it a few times. Good quality. Comes with the plug that fits your bike.

Ditto on Joe's comment. My WAG why you have to "adjust" the pressure before every ride is you're losing air when you check it.. not an uncommon problem. Using a tire-pressure-monitoring-system (TPMS) helps avoid that. There was a discussion about them not too long ago here.
