Amongst the most powerful 4-stroke engines ever built. Honda's revolutionary BF225 features a compact 60° V6, 3.5 litre engine with 24 valve, Multi Point sequential fuel injection and Variable Air Intake System.

For the first time in the marine industry, Honda's VTEC (Variable Valve Timing and Lift Electronic Control) system has been applied. Its use in the BF225 ensures optimum performance for smooth power delivery and flatter torque curve. The result is consistent acceleration and power in all conditions.

The heart of the BF225 is Honda’s Engine Control Module. This manages all engine functions such as the variable air intake, ignition timing and idling speed. It also pilots the engine alert system in case of low oil pressure, over-heating, over-revving and water contamination in fuel for total worry-free boating.

Standard features on the BF225 is an air feedback sensor and Honda's industry exclusive Lean Burn Feedback System. This reduces fuel consumption by five per cent over the previous models. Furthermore according to internal factory tests, fuel consumption is reduced by 14% over direct injection 2-stroke models and 10% over competing 4-stroke models.

Alternator output is the highest amongst its competitors. It provides "on demand" 60 amps, enough to run all necessary electronic equipment on board, while using less crankshaft horsepower.

Thanks to the 60 degree V6 engine and its sleek streamline design, the BF225 will suit a broad variety of boats, in single or twin applications.

VTEC Technology
Available on the BF225 and derived from our racing heritage, Honda’s Variable Valve Timing and Lift Electronic Control system (VTEC) achieves the best of both worlds by utilising mild cam lobes to operate the intake valves at low RPM-then, at 4,500 RPM, engaging a “high output” cam lobe for high RPM operation, ensuring smooth power delivery throughout the engine’s entire operating range.

Minimum Consumption
The BF225 consumes up to 50% less fuel than conventional 2-stroke engines thanks to Honda’s exclusive Programmed Fuel Injection and Lean Burn Feedback systems, which optimise the air-fuel ratio so you get the maximum performance out of every drop.
