I replaced mine with OEM Honda ones which seem pretty studly.

A ~half-inch chunk of the same tubing you use for everything else
with an appropriate short bolt in it is also good.

I took a vac nipple down to Ace and bought 3 bolts and copper washers to plug the unused vacuum ports. Then the vac nipples were placed under the seat in a ziplock bag.

The nipples screw right back in. I'm sure its a good thing - syncing carbs - I bet I need to.
But I've never done it in 10 years.
