In defense of Honda, this issue happened once and had zero effect on the ridability of the bike. The suspension was not adjustable, but remained at the preload and dampening I had it set at prior the the fault. The issue has never reoccured and the bike is at 36,000km now.
Since the issue originally happened, I've beaten the piss out of the bike and taken it through plenty of rain, mud and abusive wilderness roads, +40°c wildfire smoke choked days, -5°c cold starts in frozen campsites, rode it to the **** Arctic and back and pressure washed it a half dozen times in an effort to get the Yukon mud off. Aside from the one issue which was really more annoying than anything, and was fixed with a paper clip, the bike has been flawless.
