i would say that's a very reasonable price

im assuming this is an independent shop and not a honda dealer, that sounds too cheap to be a dealer price,

cheap is not always good or better, that is a big job, so make sure they are capable of doing it right,

lots of horror stories on here about independent shops messing things up with the timing belt/head,
