Features may include:
Performance and Efficiency
Honda Four-Stroke Engine Design- World-renowned Honda quality combines proven reliability with one-cylinder, 127 cubic centimeter engine block and benefit from the Honda 4-stroke engine technology expertise.
Large-Displacement, Single-Cylinder Engine- Packed with the latest technology from Honda, the 127 cc, 4-stroke, single cylinder engine, the BF4 is a compact, lightweight engine, with excellent low- to mid-range power. Small in size but big in power, the BF4 provides efficient acceleration and high levels of torque.
Transistorized Ignition- Maintenance-free, high-energy output for quick and easy starts.
Reliability and Durability
Fresh Water Flushport- Allows easy hook-up to fresh water supply to flush debris and salt water out of the engine, extending the life of the outboard (optional Flush Kit required)
Shallow-Water Drive- Greatly reduces the risk of engine damage while navigating in shallow water.
Convenience and Ease of Use
Full-Swivel Bracket Design- Durable design reduces vibration being transferred to the tiller handle. Twist Grip Throttle with throttle tensioner allows for superior throttle control. The throttle tensioner minimizes driver fatigue.
Large Front-Mounted Carrying Handle- Provides superior portability and ease of installation. The BF4 is exceptionally easy to carry as a result of its redesigned carrying handle shape. The outboard can be carried either positioned front to back or left to right, allowing for easy transport and installation.
Fold-Down Tiller Handle- A more compact design allows the tiller handle to fully fold down or up in a variety of positions out of the way, for easy transportation and more compact storage. Folding down facilitates the stowing of the engine, particularly in tight storage compartments.
Neutral-Start-Only- The BF4 incorporates a safety lock-out system that allows the engine to be started in neutral gear only.
Both 15" and 20" Shaft Lengths Available- The 15" and 20" shaft lengths allow for a wider range of boat applications.
Propeller Standard- The propeller is included as standard equipment with the BF4. For increased flexibility, Honda offers four optional propeller variations for the all-new BF4, depending on the application at hand, and torque, speed and power requirements.
Integral Fuel Tank- Facilitates easy removal and portability as one unit. Vent may be closed for transport or extended storage periods.
