BF5

The single-cylinder design of Honda's 5-horsepower BF5 outboard engine provides maximum power from the least possible weight. The BF5 features a convenient twist throttle and full shifting (forward-neutral-drive).

An innovative shallow-water drive feature allows the engine to be tilted to keep you going no matter where you want to go - and the front-mounted carry handle makes loading and unloading a breeze. This is an exceptional, all-around 4-stroke engine that's small and quiet and economical to operate.


Features

FOUR-STROKE 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.

LARGE DISPLACEMENT ENGINE
Water-cooled, single-cylinder design for better low-range to mid-range power.

PGM IGNITION
A reliable microprocessor accurately controls ignition timing during start-up and across the entire rpm range, providing optimum overall operation.

LOW OIL ALERT SYSTEM
Standard warning system protects the engine from severe damage during a low engine oil situation.

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.

FULL SWIVEL BRACKET DESIGN
Durable design reduces vibration from being transferred to the tiller handle.

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

F-N-R GEARSHIFT
With neutral in-start protection.

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.

POSITIVE LUBRICATION
A crankshaft-driven, automotive-style trochoid oil pump ensures critical engine component long-term durability.
