Honda 15 HP Tiller Outboard Motor – BF15 – 2024

With a compact size, the BF15 is perfect for aluminum fishing boats, inflatables, sailboats or as a kicker for larger fishing boats. It has one of the largest displacements in its class, giving you big performance, and the added reliability of 4-Front Corrosion Protection and Engine Alert System.

Features:

• 350 cc, 2-cylinder, in-line, OHC design powerhead. World-renowned Honda quality combines proven reliability and quiet operation with no gas-oil mixing
• Pendulum-motion mounting system for the powerhead helps absorb the vibration, including longitudinal vibration. The pendulum mount does this without the use of a heavy balancer shaft, which also significantly reduces overall weight
• Exhaust gases are diverted through additional exhaust relief ports above the cavitation plate, allowing the propeller to back up into clean, bubble-free water, thereby increasing reverse thrust
• PGM-IG ignition provides reliable starts and optimum ignition timing enhancing running performance across the entire speed range
• Electronically controlled monitoring system protects the engine components from over-revving, low engine-oil pressure and overheating
• A high-quality regulator/rectifier is standard on all models to prevent overcharging the battery
• 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)
• All Honda Marine engines exceed the highest CARB 3-Star rating to meet the rigorous California Air Resource Board’s standards
• An automatically controlled start-up fuel-enrichment system ensures optimum air-fuel ratio to the engine, eliminating the chores of choke operation and greatly simplifying engine start-up (electric-start models only)
• Easy to transport, ideal for 10-12′ fishing boats, inflatables or for auxiliary sail and trolling power
• Forward-Mounted Shift Lever: allows more control and comfort in shifting
• Quick-Twist Throttle Friction Adjuster: A simple twist of the throttle friction collar located right at the throttle grip allows you to adjust the throttle tension up or down, minimizing driver fatigue
• A quick-adjust lever design located just above the transom bracket allows for precise adjustments at your fingertips
• Foldaway carry handle is situated at the exact horizontal balance point of the engine so that the engine carries more easily in a level position
• Long tiller handle for increased control and reduced steering effort. The tiller handle is also made of lightweight composite for increased strength and weight reduction
