I'd SWAG that, on the bottom-left hanger (the longest bolt used on the DP kit), the distance from the front of the bush housing in the hanger to the front edge of the prop-stand bracket, with the DP spacers fitted, seems to be around 45mm.
So the length of the bolt you'd need would be that measurement, plus:
- the thickness of the prop-stand bracket (less locating relief/countersink), and
- the length of the thread necessary to screw into the crankcase (and support the bike on the prop-stand).
- the added thickness of the washer accepting the low-profile socket cap head
You could be right around needing a 60-65mm bolt for that usage, maybe even 70mm.. Measurement will be key.
Not to say that low-profile socket caps in that length aren't available - just that a 3 minute search on Flea Bay turned up a UK supplier offering ones up to 60mm..
