Description

LIGHTWEIGHT, COMPACT AND COMFORTABLE

The Honda Marine BF4 portable outboard engine models provide a complete performance package for the most comfortable journeys in small boats and dinghies. Equipped with the largest internal fuel tank in its class for extended running time, it offers a simple start-stop sequence, low vibration and noise, portability and easy storage. The engine also can be mounted with different propeller options, for greater flexibility depending on torque, speed and power requirements.

QUIET, RELIABLE PORTABLE POWER

Compact and lightweight, the BF4 is equipped with a powerful 127cc engine that provides efficient acceleration and high levels of torque. To help protect the engine, the Honda BF4 outboard also features an Oil Alert System that indicates low oil pressure. When low oil is detected, the system will automatically limit the engine speed to 2,300 rpm. In addition, these new Honda models are easy to start, courtesy of a decompression system that serves to bleed off cylinder pressure to reduce the pulling force to start the engine.

SEVEN YEAR WARRANTY

As a testament to their quality and reliability, all Honda engines come with a SEVEN year, non-declining, non-commercial warranty or a THREE year commercial warranty. Shop around, you won’t find a better warranty set up than Honda Marine.
