Prob a rookie question, searched some but didn't find any answer.

Ty in advance.

 

No, not all. It is a common problem, some more than others. Some seem to go through them while others never need them. Howeever, if it gets enough miles on it, the cct (and every other part) will fail eventually.

 

Ok, so the common problem wasn't fixed in the latest models? 02-06

 

Honda is always updating parts. I don't think they go out as often as the older bikes, but they're still a moving part that can fail. A bad cct is not the end of the world. It's a pretty simple repair and won't send you to the poor house.

 

i put a brand new revised one in at 20'000km. it is now AGAIN rattling only 1500km later.

 

I think the latest up dated one has 2 blue dots on the side

 

if by problem you mean a noise, then yes. Otherwise no. on my bike, I don't find this noise to be a harmful to my bike, and I don't consider it a defect in the bike's design.
