3k miles out of a rear disc and all pads??!!!!

[V2 TRV]

After my Forza got a front puncture I had it recovered to my local dealer.

I got a phone call today to say that I need new pads front and back as well as a new rear disc as it was down to the metal - after 3k miles?!!

Most of my miles are commuting and that's a mix of carriageway and motorway FFs!

Apparently the rear tyre needs replaced too so after 3k miles I need pads and tyres front and back which with 2hrs labour comes to a grand total of £400!!!!

I will definitely be making asking for some sort of gesture from Honda - am I being unreasonable?

WELL PEEVED

Scoots can be hard on the brakes and discs as there is no engine braking. My T Max gets 6000 miles out of the brake pads but has twin discs up front and I do ride it hard .3000 miles is nothing though so I'd be looking to Honda for a sweetener

Small hoops means more revolutions per mile than big hoops = less miles from your tyre.

Anyway - honda replacing disc and pads under warranty - result!
