BF2

Honda's 2-horsepower engine - the lightest four-stroke outboard motor in the world. The BF2 delivers power and smooth, comfortable operation in a small, easy-to-handle package. And it's extremely low-maintenance: with an easy-to-start transistor ignition... and a forced-air cooling system that eliminates the need for a water pump.


Features

FOUR-STROKE ENGINE DESIGN
World-renowned Honda quality combines proven reliability and superior fuel efficiency, with no oil mixing.

LIGHTWEIGHT/COMPACT DESIGN
Easy to transport; perfect for small tenders and canoes.

CENTRIFUGAL CLUTCH
Models available with centrifugal clutch that is able to maintain a smooth idle and then, when the throttle is advanced, automatically engage the prop above idle speed. It’s like having a neutral position.

TRANSISTOR IGNITION
Maintenance-free, high-energy output for quick and easy starts.

FORCED AIR-COOLED ENGINE
No water pump to worry about being plugged with weeds or damaged by sand. Runs in the shallows!

TWIST GRIP THROTTLE
Allows for precise throttle control, and the throttle tensioner minimises driver fatigue.

FRONT MOUNT CARRYING HANDLE
Provides superior portability and ease of installation.

360° SWIVEL STEERING
Provides excellent manoeuvrability in tight areas. More reverse thrust!

FOLD-DOWN TILLER HANDLE
A more compact design allows for easy transportation and storage.

SHALLOW WATER DRIVE
Allows you to run in shallow water and greatly reduces the risk of engine damage.

CORROSION PROTECTION SYSTEM
A patented, 'double sealed' multi-layered paint process. Sacrificial anodes and stainless steel technology, along with waterproof connectors, all enhance corrosion protection.

INTEGRAL FUEL TANK
Facilitates easy removal and portability as one unit. Vent may be closed for transport or extended storage periods. Runs up to 55 minutes at full throttle on a tank of fuel.

EASY MAINTENANCE
Convenient oil fill and drain.

STEERING FRICTION ADJUSTMENT
Adjust steering tension for ease in manoeuvrability.
