They haven't offered the bike here since 2017, and there are no plans to offer it here again. They aren't going to go back now and revisit a minor-annoyance issue afflicting a one-year-only, low-volume-seller model like the CB1100.
Unless you are willing to fabricate your own solution, similar to Triumph's permanent fix, or, perhaps, replace the entire rotors/calipers assembly with something different, you're just going to have to live with it.

Read something about tighter emissions restrictions making it unfeasible for American Honda to produce another air-cooled motor for this market.
This, on top of the common-sense observation that Honda has continued to update and offer the CB1100 in other markets while allowing it to die on the vine here.
