Run it without the thermostat and post the results here. It should run colder that it was designed to run especially with a brand new radiator. It might not run hot enough for the heat to work properly in cooler evening temps.

THAT YOU HAD TO REPLACE (RADIATOR) IF YOUR GOAL IS TO PROPERLY REPAIR THE CAR.

Prime suspect is the thermostat. It can't hurt to take it out temporarily. If it runs too cold don't put THAT thermostat back in the car. Get an OE Honda t-stat not some crap after market that might destroy the engine.
