I have a 47 liter Givi topcase... So I've got a complete repairset. I used one cardrige , then it was driveble, half full. Drove to a nearby VW-dealership and pumped the tire to it's normal pressure.
Here are the pics to show size the second unit expensive, i went with the slime pump it works great.
Cheers

I seen a guy use 2 small ones to fill his tyre from fully flat on a bigger bike then ours ,not sure if it was 100% correct pressure ,but we rode 20km to the next service station to fill it and check it .....,as long as its 3/4 full you can ride it, to get you back on the road. I carry 3 small ones that fit under the seat .

Being somewhat of a bicycle afficionado, I'll add that you can get the cartridges at any bicycle shop and you should also know that this kind of air escapes much quicker than regular air. So, let the air out when you get home and pump the tire back up with regular air.
