#1 Brake bleeder ball bearing size.

Not listed separately in the Parts Manual and have drawn a blank searching the site.

Can anyone put a mic across one of these ball bearings and tell me the correct diameter?

Eventually had to pull the master cylinder and so could pull the bleeder apart.

They are 4.75mm or 3/16".
