INTRODUCING THE BF10
Delivering dependable portable performance, the BF10 is ideal for inflatable boats, small aluminium dinghies and sailing boats.
COMPACT AND POWERFUL
The BF10 has been designed for boaters who want dependable performance in a portable package.
At 222cc, it has the largest displacement in its class, and Honda's Power Thrust Propeller - a four-blade propeller design (optional) - creates significantly more thrust in both forward and reverse gears.
Of course, Honda quality combines proven reliability and superior fuel efficiency, with no oil mixing.
ADVANCED PERFORMANCE
As with all Honda outboards, Advanced Four-Stroke Technology means unparalleled easy starting, quiet operation and low emissions. There’s no messy two-stroke oil mixing required, saving you time - and money - in the long term.
The BF10 has very low fuel consumption and maintenance costs, yet still delivers the optimum performance and durability for which Honda is renowned.
Programmed Ignition (PGM-IG) also accurately controls ignition timing during start-up and across the entire rev range for optimum overall operation.
LIGHTWEIGHT DESIGN
The BF10 is one of the lightest four-stroke engines in its class. This allows convenient transport and easy mounting to any hull.
A convenient, foldaway carry handle is situated at the exact top/bottom balance point of the engine, so that the engine carries easily in a level position.
And the BF10 has a convenient longer tiller handles for increased control and reduced steering effort. The extended handle is also made of a new lightweight composite for increased durability and weight reduction.
OTHER FEATURES
A High Output Charging system pumps out 2amp at 1000rpm and an amazing 12amp at only 3000rpm to maintain the battery charge and keep electronics going, even at trolling speeds.
The convenient Forward-Mount Shift Lever allows fingertip shifting, while the BF10's Twist Grip Throttle and Tensioner allows for superior throttle friction control, minimising driver fatigue.
And a crankshaft-driven, automotive-style trochoid oil pump ensures critical engine component long-term durability, giving you years of enjoyment from your BF10.
