Just an allen bolt and a washer will do the trick, I've done it.

I can't remember what size bolt at the mo

I know this may seem like a strange suggestion, given that a fair few people here would rather bodge something together for pennies when a quid would sort it properly, but have you thought of buying the correct fastener from a Suzuki dealer? They aren't that expensive.

True but its only a large dome headed alloy bolt and replacing it with a stainless allen bolt of superior tensile strength whilst I'm waiting for a new suzuki part isn't a bodge in my book

Suzuki dealers sell Suzuki parts.

Unfortunately, when dealing with someone who has to ask where they can buy a simple item like a screw or bolt because it's been lost in their garage or workshop (if they have one - more likely to be the garden) the reality is you 99% of the time end up with a lash-up.
