Looks to be M8 or M10. Take another pic with the tape rotated * in relation to the threads or put calipers on the threaded part.

Yeah, you'd be surprised how much of this stuff can be bought "off-the-shelf" while they try and tell you it's a special item for their bikes alone. (BTW, you just might want to pick up a plastic gauge for bolt and hole sizes.)

Millwall, you can find aftermarket parts that are far BETTER in quality than a lot of the "OEM" parts being sold out there.
