I think you're looking at a Suzuki special there for an exact match of thread, head shape/size, shoulder etc .

Probably M6 but Rusty is right, it's a Suzuki special if you want it to match.

Why not take the one out of the otherside & look/measure that?
Some of the fixings are smaller than m6 as I recall but as the others say you'll need to go to Suzuki for the right one.
