The simplest and most foolproof thing you can do is to take one of the others down to either your Ace or True Value hardware stores (both have a good metric selection) and compare with their stuff.1980 GS1100E....Number 15!

year and model information would help
parts fiche sites often list the fastener with its metric dimensions.
or as suggested take one down to a hardware store....

Metric fasteners give the pitch, SAE gives the count per inch.

Bike Bandit is a decent enough place to order parts, but of all the ones that I have used, they are the only ones that use their own numbering system. All the others use real Suzuki part numbers. Sometimes the bolt/nut size is encoded into the part number.
.
The new part is darn pretty and chrome plated though so I would buy it online rather than get some less than beautiful equivalent.....
