carb manifold removal or moving
Ed Z Wrote:I'd get the four manifold O-rings and the four air suction valve O-rings

Part # 91305-422-000 for suction valve (hose end under manifold)
Part # 91301-MG9-003 for the manifold o-rings

You don't need to remove the manifolds from the carb assembly... Just unbolt em from the head and loosen the hose clamp on the carb end... Then just rotate the manifolds 180 degrees... This method keeps the correct manifold to the correct carb (they are a little different from each other)... If you ever have need to completely remove the manifold from the carb then be sure to mark the correct cylinder # on em (I do it on the under side of the elbow so to be out off sight)...

Being that you have gone this far with the carb assembly removal, you might consider taking them completely off the bike... This will give you a chance to change out the air valve as well as clean the reed valve assembly (box mounted under the carb assembly with the four hoses on it that go to each manifold)...

You asked about what o-rings / gaskets to have on hand... About the only thing I can think of to have on hand is an oil filter and o-rings that go with it... For the other stuff, it is wisest to first study the task you have in mind (read the manual) and then get the required replacement gaskets / o-rings and other stuff prior to starting the task... Things like the manifold o-rings often can be had on eBay... Sometimes you can get upgraded type o-ring (nitrile) and also save some bucks...
Ed,
Are you talking about the air valve as part #
18600-MG9-014 $112US.
17440-MG9-641 $46US
51456-MB9-871 $13US

How often does that need to be changed? I am ordering the rings right now with a few extras of each..
