It's a m2. It's differently the brake. I'm not real happy with the brake design on it. Other than that I am happy with my choice of the Honda. The factory tires aren't that great. I got 800 miles on it and the fronts are already worn. I am looking for a tire more suitable for pavement.
Well the reason I ask is because there were some people that had problems with the brakes going out with extremely low mileage, like 200-300 miles! I'm not sure why that happened to them maybe a bad batch of pads or something (I have almost 4000 miles on Original pads). So if you're positive it's the brake making the noise it might just be worth looking at the pads.
