Sloppy gearshift lever

Hi all:

I hope everyone is safe and doing okay.

Here's my question:  The gearshift lever on my 1984 GS1150ES is quite sloppy...clearly the metals have worn down over time.  Since the parts I would need to replace are no longer available (the shift lever and the shaft onto which the lever pivots), do any of you have recommendations as to who sells brass sleeves or tubes I could use to get rid of the sloppiness of the lever?

FYI, I've taken the measurements with a micrometer of the thickness of the bronze I would need to make up for the worn-down metal.

Thanks very much.
