Can someone measure something for me?

My carbs were disassembled when I brought the bike home, guy I got it from started to clean them and didn't finish.
I've started going over them to see what's what.
Going to have to get a carb kit, holders, plugs etc.
Anyhow when going over the carbs schematic from Yamaha I noticed some missing pieces.
There are two small ball bearings for the choke rod spring detent missing.
Yamaha p# 93501-08001-00 BALL says 1/8" diameter, I measured the hole they go in on carb comes out to .124 close enough, now I do have a bunch of miscelanious bearings in the shop that I can make work they measure .120+/-.

Can someone measure a ball please?, if they have one around.
I just want a comparison for slide fit and to see if I can reuse something not originally intended for this purpose which I love doing and not have to buy if I already have it.
thanks for the help.

It's the same size ball you would find in a zerk grease fitting.

What xschris said. I lost one when I rebuilt my carbs. You can drill out the grease fitting and the ball will work for the choke slide.

Right on, thanks guys, I'll measure one up just to compare with the bearings I have from a GYRO cable detangler from a BMX I had as a teen, maybe another easy source.
