I've just notcied that the bottom bolt of the front caliper has actually scraped the bolts that hold the disc to the front wheel, the damage to the disc bolts is only microns but it is a visible scrape. Has anyone else got this bike and noticed the same problem?
The disc is true and the wheel runs true, it's just that 3 of the 6 allen key bolts that attach the disc are not as flush as should be.
If this is a design flaw, should there be a recall? my warranty has ran out and this is yet another shitty manufacturing problem i have encountered with this bike.

Thanks in advance.

Can't say I've noticed anything on mine, but have those disc bolts gotten loose?

VOSA shows no recalls for the CBF125. No, really. Sad

disc bolts are not loose and are as tight as can be, i managed to grind 1-2mm off the end of the bolt so the problem has been solved although the question still remains that the problem should not be there in the first instance.
Just waiting for a response from honda regarding this issue.
