Instead of the Windburner stove I would recommend the MSR Whisperlite. It runs off of gasoline and the one liter bottle can be used as spare fuel for your bike in an emergency.

But otherwise a good list.

I just went on a 3-day motorcycle camping trip and took one of these. After I saw the video I had to get one, and it worked great. I also took a similarly compact lantern.

Those are a inexpensive little stove (just checked Amazon and you can get 2 for $16 shipped), For that price I'll pick up a couple. But you make up for it in gas costs. And you have to find the gas bottles. (Edited to add: Just found out that Walmart has the smaller cans of gas for $5)

The Whisperlite International will run on just about any flammable liquid (white gas, auto gas, kerosene, diesel, and with an easy mod alcohol). But it's a $100 stove.

But for the cost and weight of those little butane stoves it's worth it to pick one up to have as a spare or if you are someplace where the butane gas cylinders are easy to come by.

I got an adapter so I can use the squatty 16.4 oz. propane cans. I refill them from 20 lb. tanks. It gets pretty tall using that size tank, but it worked fine.

The cheap little stoves are also available with the burner made to sit on a table, and a hose to the fuel bottle. I thought about getting one of those, but it's not as ridiculously small when folded up.
