Honda is recommending that you change a timing _belt_, not a timing _chain_.  I
timing belt is rubber and is a 'wear item.' There is no scheduled
maintenance/replacement interval for most timing chains. The chains are pretty
tough.

btw, I think he is ripping you off. But maybe he's just careful. Either way, I
wouldn't do it.

BMC

1987 900T, 241,000mi, original timing chain.
