Apart from recognising that as the late Norifumi Abe I don't know where you would get info on the colours from. You could try contacting Yamaha motor UK. Hopefully someone on here will have some info for you.

go with what you think looks right. Looks like a bright white and black then put a gloss clear over the top... That's just what I'd do if I couldn't find out. Sorry that's not too helpful

If not full gloss then you could clear and polish the whole thing and add a very fine satin coat on top of the black. It's going to be difficult either way you do it to get the paint levels prefect with no step. I will be interested to see how you beat the challenge!
