Forza rear brake

Just back from the ever helpful Ecosse Honda Shoppe in the big city.
The Forza had developed a pulsing effect in the left brake lever, this was confirmed to be a warped disc as I suspected and a new one with pads has just been fitted under warranty.
They also found a dud brake light switch, swapped that and changed the dipstick o-ring which was found to be not sealing very well.
Forza owners might want to keep an eye on their rear caliper, check its not sticking when you rotate the wheel.

thanks for the heads up! I'll keep an eye on mine. How many miles on yours?

gn2, you've got over 10,000 miles, just curious how long did your tires last before you had to change them?
