The production of these motor bikes should start in 2015. "We announce that (from) next year Honda will start making CBR -650 in India.

However, it is still unclear that the same Gujarat plant will start producing the high-end bikes as well. Honda might be looking for another place to setup shop to for superbike production in India. This means that they willinvest more money in the country, which will churn more job opportunities.
HMSI already has plants in Rajasthan, Haryana and Karnataka and with the Gujarat plant coming to effect in 2015 they will have a greater hold in the two wheeler market.
It is said that the new plant in Gujarat will have over 3,000 employees and will be the largest scooter manufacturing unit in the world.
