Just to clarify... If the hub is supported by an inner and outer
bearing (simple spindle suspension), I would replace the pair even if
only one was going bad. Honda's do have inner and outers, yes?

Not a big fan either, but they are just a 3 minute walk down the
street, and being a single guy it is extremely convenient. Anyway, I
am still is research mode so I have not authorized any repairs (yet).
I just want to hear their diagnosis.

Yes - the pair on that side would be replaced. I meant the left side would
not have to be replaced if the right side is bad, the way shocks and
bushings are done.
