INTRODUCING THE BF5
The BF5 incorporates a huge range of innovative features in the lightest possible package.
FOUR-STROKE DESIGN
World-renowned Honda quality combines proven reliability with superior fuel efficiency.
A standard warning system protects the engine from severe damage during a low engine oil situation. There’s no two-stroke oil mixing, resulting in a healthier experience for you and the environment.
Compare that with the smoky discharge of two-stroke competitors, and you’ll also save money in the long run with a Honda!
THE RIGHT AMOUNT OF MUSCLE
The BF5 is powered by a large Displacement Engine. It incorporates a water-cooled, single-cylinder design for better low-range to mid-range power.
Boaters can take advantage of this as the displacement provides more low and mid-range power. Even at low revs, the BF5 has solid and reliable torque to move heavier hulls than other engines in their class.
All this is packed into a lightweight, compact design that’s easy to transport, and perfect for small tenders, canoes, and Honda’s Honwave.
4-FRONT CORROSION PROTECTION SYSTEM
A patented ‘double sealed’ multi-layered paint process will help keep your BF5 from succumbing to the elements.
Sacrificial anodes and stainless steel technology, along with waterproof connectors, all enhance corrosion protection.
There’s much more than just classy cosmetic appearance behind Honda’s attention-grabbing aquamarine silver finish!
SO MANY FEATURES
The BF5 features a durable, Full Swivel Bracket Design, made to reduce vibration transferring to the tiller handle.
The Front Mount Carrying Handle provides superior portability and simple installation, and the Shallow Water Drive allows you to run the BF5 in shallow water and greatly reduce the risk of engine damage.
As well as these, the BF5 starts with PGM Ignition; A reliable microprocessor that accurately controls ignition timing during start-up and across the entire rpm range, providing optimum overall operation.
