I'd be happy to replace just one disc. But would go genuine Honda. New or a decent used one. 14,000 miles does not sound like a lot to me for wear on a brake disc - although it depends on use of course.

I'd be tempted not to replace the pads either, depending on how they look.

I’ve gone for 2 discs, i can sell the one bent some and recoup a bit of the loss, tell you what though, it would have been cheaper to have it nicked. Sod using a disk lock again

You want one of them neon stretchy things that clip on the disk lock and you attach to the bars as a reminder, or one of then disk locks that make a racket if you move the bike with them attached.

Got it back now, all sorted, the pads didn’t have much meat left on them, used disc is on eBay, so let’s hope it sells.
