I cant picture the rivet but when i can't name a part correctly i go on line to ducati Omaha to their extensive parts catalogues. I've gone as far back as my 96 SS I'm sure there might be similar resources where you are.

As far as removing the old rivet when I've had one spin on me I've used a couple size larger drill bit and enough force to catch it. This has worked for me but you have to be careful of the surface beneath the head. The other option is a small bit drilling down inside the rivet and then progressively go up a size or two until you get it.

A good rivet gun should put the new rivet back in and if possible try to practice rivet first on a similar metal thickness if you can.
