The bikes Honda wants to build 4m a year of

Honda says it will build FOUR MILLION of these little beauties, along with their Unicorn, Stunner and Activa siblings, each year by 2013.

The £570 CB Twister 110 and £720 CB Shine 125 will form the bulk of the growth in output from the three mega-factories Honda will have running in India by late 2012.

If they hit their target Honda will be turning out bikes at a rate of 7.66 bikes a minute, or one every 8 seconds. Honda sold 2250 CBF125s in Britain in 2010, about an afternoon’s work for Honda India had they been Twisters or Shines.
