Reliable and quiet, the ergonomic carry handle of the lightweight BF2.3 allows the Honda experience to be enjoyed anywhere, anytime! The ease of transporting the BF2.3 makes it perfect for inflatable boats like the Honwave, as well as small tenders and canoes.
Ultimate portable power
-
Not only does the BF2.3 pack enough punch to push a boat out to sea, it’s light enough to be carried back to the car. Thanks to the ergonomic carry handle fitted to each engine, the BF2.3 can be taken virtually anywhere. Despite the engine’s size, the BF2.3 boasts all the benefits of Honda’s advanced four-stroke technology, its lightest 2.3hp four-stroke available – even lighter than most two-stroke outboards.
Low maintenance
-
Thanks to the transistor ignition, you’ll get maintenance-free, high-energy output for quick and easy starts with the BF2.3. The forced air-cooled engine also means there is no water pump to worry about being plugged with weeds or damaged by sand. The BF2.3’s Shallow Water Drive also allows you to run in shallow water and greatly reduces the risk of engine damage.
Integral fuel tank
-
A 1L integral fuel tank facilitates easy removal and portability as one unit. The vent is able to be closed during transport or for extended storage periods. The engine can run for up to 55 minutes at full throttle on a tank of fuel.
Centrifugal clutch
-
The Honda BF2.3 comes standard with a centrifugal clutch. As a result, the engine is able to maintain a smooth idle and automatically engage the prop above idle speed when the throttle is advanced. It’s like having a neutral position. The engine is able to maintain a smooth idle and then upon advancing the throttle it automatically engages the propeller above idle speed.
360 rotation and optimum maneuverability
-
Get in and out of tight spots with ease, or go in any direction on the compass, with this extremely maneuverable engine. The reverse thrust allows you to get to where you want to go efficiently. A twist grip throttle also allows for precise throttle control, and the throttle tensioner minimises driver fatigue.
3 Year Commercial Warranty
Honda outboards are the toughest and most reliable on the Australian market and are backed by an industry leading 3-Year* Commercial Warranty.
7 Year Domestic Warranty
Honda offers an unmatched 7-Year* Domestic Warranty with the added confidence of knowing that coverage is the same on the last day as it is on the first – something no other outboard manufacturer offers.
