Performance and Efficiency
- Honda Four-Stroke Engine Design: World-renowned Honda quality combines proven reliability with one-cylinder, 127 cubic centimeter engine block and benefit from Honda’s 4-stroke engine technology expertise.
- Lightweight, Compact Design: The Honda BF5DHLHC L-Type is among the lightest in its class at 28.3 kg (62.4 lb.). It is not just among the lightest in its class but is exceptionally easy to carry as a result of its redesigned carrying handle shape. This model can be carried either positioned front to back or left to right, allowing for easy transport and installation. When it comes to storage of the engine, the tiller handle can fold up and down in a variety of positions; folding down facilitates the stowing of the engine, particularly in tight storage compartments. In addition, as an auxiliary outboard, it can be easily stowed and away from the elements, rather than kept on the boat’s transom bracket. The all-new BF5DHLHC L-Type portable outboard provide class-leading performance in a compact design for a wide range of marine applications from leisure to emergency use. The BF5DHLHC L-Type is well-suited for different types of small boats including skiffs, inflatable boats and dinghies.
- Large-Displacement, Single-Cylinder Engine: Packed with the latest technology from Honda, the 127 cc, 4-stroke, single cylinder engine, the BF5DHLHC L-Type is a compact, lightweight engine, with excellent low- to mid-range power. Small in size but big in power, the BF5DHLHC L-Type provides efficient acceleration and high levels of torque.
- Transistorized Ignition: Maintenance-free, high-energy output for quick and easy starts.
Reliability and Durability
- Oil Alert System: To help protect the engine, the Honda BF5DHLHC L-Type outboard also feature an Oil Alert System that indicates low oil pressure. When low oil pressure is detected, the system will automatically limit the engine speed to 2,300 rpm and a signal is sent to the user (oil alert warning light). This standard warning system protects the engine from severe damage during a low engine-oil situation and provides boaters peace of mind.
- Fresh Water Flushport: Allows easy hook-up to fresh water supply to flush debris and salt water out of the engine, extending the life of the outboard (optional Flush Kit required)
- Efficient Fuel Tank Cooling: The cover of the all-new Honda BF5DHLHC L-Type is designed to effectively cool the internal fuel tank by facilitating the flow of cool air around the engine. During operation, ambient (cool) air is taken in under the engine’s cover and chaeled toward the fuel tank. At the same time, hot air produced by the engine is directed away from the fuel tank and into the carburetor where it is mixed with cool air.
- Shallow-Water Drive: Greatly reduces the risk of engine damage while navigating in shallow water.
- Sacrificial Anode: A sacrificial anode is mounted on the antiventilation plate of the lower unit. It is used to protect other metal components on the outboard from corrosion. The anode must be exposed to the water in order to protect the outboard motor.
- Three-Year Warranty: The best outboards in the industry are backed by the best warranty in the business, 3 years parts and labour. Honda’s coverage is non-declining!! Our warranty provides top to bottom coverage and is the same on the last day as it is on the first!!
Convenience and Ease of Use
- Full-Swivel Bracket Design: Durable design reduces vibration being transferred to the tiller handle. Twist Grip Throttle with throttle tensioner allows for superior throttle control. The throttle tensioner minimizes driver fatigue.
- Large Front-Mounted Carrying Handle: Provides superior portability and ease of installation. The BF5DHLHC L-Type is exceptionally easy to carry as a result of its redesigned carrying handle shape. The outboard can be carried either positioned front to back or left to right, allowing for easy transport and installat
