BF30
SMALL AND VERSATILE
For mid and smaller horsepower needs, there’s plenty of punch in the Honda BF30. But it’s power you’ll feel and never hear. That’s because all Hondas are whisper quiet. So extraordinarily quiet, we don’t have to put extra dampening insulation in the cowling like most manufacturers do.
Instead we pack ‘em full of features. Like a Center Mount Tiller with up-front controls. The 3 to 3 Induction system that provides smooth, quiet operation. And Autostart Enrichment, which makes starting a breeze.
And of course, they are exceptionally durable. The end result? More good times on the water.
POWERFUL PERFORMANCE
INCREASED DISPLACEMENT FOR MORE POWER
The BF25 and 30 are among the largest displacement in their class, at 552 cc (33.7 cubic inches). This provides more torque in midrange operation.
MIKUNI® INTAKE SYSTEM
The lightweight Mikuni® long tube intake track system helps build low end torque.
LEGENDARY RELIABILITY
HONDA QUALITY
Our outboards share many technologies and components used in Honda vehicles, with all the benefits of years of proven Honda engineering, precision manufacturing and reliability.
ENGINE ALERT SYSTEM
The Engine Alert System uses visual, audio and RPM reduction circuits to alert the operator of over-heating, low oil PSI and over-revving.
CORROSION RESISTANCE
Honda’s exclusive 4-Front Corrosion Protection System offers a patented, double-sealed multi-layered paint process.
FISHING FRIENDLY TILLER
CONVENIENT CONTROLS
The center mounted, ergonomically designed tiller handle is longer for improved handling. Adjustments for throttle and steering friction allow easier control. Up front shift lever, PTT switch, and engine alert lamps provide added convenience.
FORWARD MOUNTED SHIFT LEVER
Provides easy access to the forward-mounted controls.
ATTRACTIVE OPTIONS
GAS ASSIST TILT
Acting much like a pressure strut on a car’s trunk lid, the gas-filled cylinder makes it easy to tilt the engine for running in shallow water, or to raise it completely out of the water for protection.
POWER TRIM/TILT
Allows you to trim the unit for maximum performance and handling. Trim Range: – 4° to +12° Tilt Range: 64°
