Reliable and quiet, the ergonomic carry handle of the lightweight BF2.3 allows the Honda experience to be enjoyed anywhere, anytime…

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.
