1995 Honda Marine BF 78

2023 Honda Marine BF78 DK3LHC

Incredible torque, performance and versatility. The BF78, with its short, long and extra long shaft lengths, gives you plenty of choice for your fishing boat, sailboat or as a kicker for larger fishing boats. And with Fold-Down Tiller Handle and available Power Tilt, Electric Start, Remote steering and Power Thrust, you also get loads of convenience and power.

Features may include:

Performance and Efficiency

• The BF78s utilize a, twin cylinder, in-line, OHC design powerhead. World-renowned Honda quality combines proven reliability and quiet operation with no gas-oil mixing.

• When reversing, the 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.

• A fully-remote-control BF78 model (LRTC) is available. Complete with control box and steering tube for a clean installation.

Reliability and Durability

• 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.

Convenience and Ease of Use

• 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 ft. fishing boats, inflatables or for auxiliary sail and trolling power. Also, the BF78's rounded ergonomics won't catch fishing lines as easily.

• All electric-start models are fitted with a high-output charging system that will deliver an amazing 12 amps at only 3,000 rpm to keep your electronics working and batteries charged. Manual-start models have 6 amps.

• The programmed-ignition system sets the ignition system during start-up to reduce the effort required to pull start the engine.
