Thanks Kev

Depends on which thread is stripped.
Mounting, bleed nipple, hydraulic banjo fitting, or splitting the caliper halves if you have that type of caliper?

If it's the mounting I think it's a M8- I can check tomorrow when I'm off as I have a mounting plate off the bike. If it is, maybe go for the Wurth insert - looks to be a better bet for brakes

M10 x 1.5 on my '99 version . Or enter your bikes details on this site and the bolt sizes are listed in the descriptions.
