Actually this firm seem to have the recipe. https://www.twowheelparts.nl/en/paint/colorpaint/honda/1022279/freedom-green-metallic-cb-750-k4-cb-550-k0-usa-freedom-green-met-375ml-paintbottle.html

Hi ... One option is to take panel into any decent paint shop and get them to scan it to get a formula. My friend did this with his 'Gentle Maroon Metallic' for his CB250K4 (on my recommendation because RS paint was mega expensive for that paint scheme) and it turned out great. From memory 500ml of basecoat (thinned makes 1 litre) was about £23 inc VAT
That kit you linked has 1k lacquer .. I always use 2k either Mipa or 2k in a can Spraymax both give excellent results and E10 fuel resistant.
You can borrow my panel if you like (assuming colour is correct). Here it is.

Never even thought about that Ash, I could probably source locally in which case I would take you up on your kind offer of borrowing your side panel. There would be no rush as I wouldn’t be painting until the summer time. I will send a PM.

Hi Ash and Johnny,
If there is no rush, then my Cousin will be visiting - probably in the Spring and he lives in Anlaby High Road, not far from you Ash. I know he would be more than willing to collect and return the panel to save possible loss in transit. He will be coming by road and via Inverness, so it could be arranged for him have it analysed at Dingbros and paint collected. Graham at Hatston was talking about investing in a colour analyser - I'll find out if there is any progress.
