Product Options

Honda 115hp Outboard

The all-new BF115 combines a 2.4 litre engine, the largest in its class*1, with the same BLAST*2 (Boosted Low Speed Torque) air/fuel ratio and ignition timing technology made popular in Honda's mid-to-large outboard engine series, to achieve prodigious acceleration along with outstanding torque characteristics over a wide range of engine speeds from low to high.

The versatile BF115 can be used in a broad range of applications, from fishing boats to runabouts for leisure use.

A lean-burn system has also been added, boosting fuel economy by 20%*3 over the previous model*4 to deliver a combination of powerful acceleration and outstanding fuel economy. The BF115's battery charging performance, the best in its class*5, helps support the ever-increasing need for onboard device power.

Key Features of the BF115

Acceleration and cruising performance

• Honda's proprietary acceleration-enhancing technology, BLAST, enhances acceleration performance through simultaneous, computer-controlled optimization of the air/fuel ratio and ignition timing.
• The DOHC 2.4 liter in-line 4-cylinder engine boasts the largest displacement in its class, ensuring torquey performance over a wide range of engine speeds and best-in-class top speed.
• A large-diameter propeller with outstanding propulsion efficiency is matched with a 2.14 reduction gear ratio to deliver high-thrust power.

Fuel economy

• The BF115 employs an LAF sensor*6-equipped, PGM-FI*7 electronic fuel injection system to achieve lean-burn control*8 while cruising*9, delivering best-in-class*10 cruising fuel economy.
• *6 The LAF (Linear Air-Fuel ratio) sensor determines the engine combustion air/fuel ratio based on oxygen and unburned-fuel densities in the exhaust gas, allowing precise optimization of air/fuel ratios.
• *7 PGM-FI (Programmed Fuel Injection) is a Honda registered trademark.
• *8 The mode in which lean-burn control is used during cruising to achieve higher fuel economy is referred to as ECOmo.
• *9 ‘Cruising' refers to the operating speed range in which engine speed is maintained at approximately 50-80% of maximum rpm, with the throttle wide open.
• *10 115PS class (Honda calculations)

Durability

The BF115 is equipped with four warning lights, including an oil pressure alert, overheat alert, ACG warning, and PGM-FI electronic fuel injection system warning to detect any malfunction or irregularity and alert the operator.

Easy maintenance

• A flush valve joint permits easy engine cleaning after use.
• A two-piece under-cover promotes greater ease of maintenance.
• The lightweight engine cover opens with a single lever for fast, easy removal.

Environmental performance

• The BF115 displays outstanding environmental performance, surpassing US CARB*12 emissions standards*13-the most stringent in the world. It also exceeds secondary restrictions on marine engine emissions established by the Japan Boating Industry Association by a significant margin.
• *12 CARB: California Air Resources Board
• *13 Top rating (3 stars) for FY2008 (current product)
