On my previous bike I bought all colorite paint for yamaha silky white and fin red, because they had to match existing color, they are like $40 and have very little paint in them. If you are starting from scratch then here is a much cheaper and still close color. For the white use duplicolor classic white as a base $5, and color rite silky white top coat $40 (this should be enough to do an entire bike, since you don't need to use a lot). For the red use duplicolor cardinal red cc $5 and duplicolor clear coat $8. When I used all colorite it ended up costing me like $180 in paint alone, doing it this way should be a whole lot les, well under a $100. here is pic of duplicolor combo.
