$240 sounds like a fairly good deal from a Honda dealer, especially if it includes new rotors and not turning the old ones. Resurfacing rotors is fine, they are designed that way, so don't let anyone sell you rotors for no reason. All brake rotors have a minimum thickness, ask for that spec or find it yourself and then ask what the rotors measure now. Usually you can knock off .030in or so and have a perfect surface again.
Of course when its time for new pads on my motorcycle I just go at the (stainless steel) rotors with some 80 or 100 grit paper and have done with it!
Good luck and stay away from the big chains! Support you locally owned shop, at least if you get ripped off more of the money stays in your community.
