Default need dimension data

I need to replace my peg feeler/scraper/sensor.

I asked the closest stealer about it. The reply was:
- Not on stock, must be ordered, takes 2-3 days
- Price for a pair: USD 5.-

I think they are surely crazy! I don't want to pay 5 bucks for two screws (am I cheap?), so I will put some commodity bolt on. But I do not know and cannot measure the dimensions 'cause they are almost totally worn-out already.

Need total length and thread size.

If some of you still have it intact and have time to measure it I would highly appreciate your help.

I take it the 32mm is only on the left peg when used with the Suzuki centerstand.

OK, so the stock length is 12,5 mm (for bike w/o Suzuki CS), but that does not include the thread length, right? BTW is that an M6 thread?

I've got one I don't need that you are welcome to. I replaced it with the longer one for the Suzuki centerstand.

Sorry for my little oops. Should have said Suzuki center stand and measured feelers installed on pegs so I have no info on threads or their length.

I'm afraid the freight cost would be much higher than two sets of feelers here...

But thanks!

Today I rode to my friend (to discuss some key points on my ideas about adjustable side stand and automatic chain oiler. He is an engineer and a real inventor! He's got several patents already, worked for Visteon now for Bosch!) and while he took some measures on my bike I took off the right side feeler. It has M8x10 thread, so the total length is 10+12,5=22,5 mm (almost 1 inch).
BTW it had some blue material (Loctite?) on the thread.

Thanks for all of your help!
