personally, i'd be more worried about whether they were genuine honda 
brakes than what the break-in procedure was.  in my experience, 
non-honda components tend to fade badly and score disks and drums. 
judging from your desire to replace the drums already, highly unusual on 
a honda except for extreme mileage or cheapo brake linings, it sounds 
like you could be discovering that already.
