They look good. But they run even better.
You know the old saying about how
the best things come in small packages.
Never was that more true than with
the BF5 and new BF2.3 . The BF2.3 ,
for instance, is one of the world's
lightest four-stroke outboards
and it rivals many two-stroke
2 HP engines and electric motors,
without the battery!
Both the BF5 and BF2.3 provide quiet
rides and reliability for small tenders,
canoes and jon boats and both are
incredibly lightweight and compact.
Honda BF5
Features Include: SHALLOW WATER DRIVE • FOLD-DOWN TILLER HANDLE • FUEL TANK & FUEL HOSE (BF5) • INTEGRAL FUEL TANK (BF2.3) • TWO SHAFT LENGTHS
EMERGENCY STOP SWITCH • FRONT MOUNT CARRYING HANDLE • LOCKABLE CLAMP HANDLES
For a complete explanation of features, please refer to the technology section on pages 4-7. All boaters shown are wearing personal flotation devices.
Pack 'em for anywhere and they're
ready to take you everywhere.
The new BF2.3 features 15% more
power over its BF2 predecessor and a
12% larger internal gas tank ; which
provides for approximately one hour
of operation at wide open throttle.
The BF5 features a Low Oil Pressure
Warning System, a Forward-
Neutral-Reverse Gearshift,
Positive Lubrication and Overrev
Protection to ensure long-term
durability. The BF2.3 features a Forced
Air Cooled Engine, meaning there's
no water pump to worry about getting
clogged when you're in the weeds or
shallows. It also features 360-degree
Swivel Steering for improved
maneuverability in tight areas.
Another BF2.3 feature is its
Centrifugal Clutch. It maintains a
smooth idle, then, when the throttle is
advanced, it automatically engages the
prop above idle speed. It's like having
a neutral position. Both the BF5 and
BF2.3 come with Twist Grip
Throttles for precise control and are
backed by Honda's True 5 Warranty.
