2024 Honda Marine BF60 60AK1LRTC

Honda Marine BF60 60AK1LRTC

Lightweight yet powerful, the BF60 has proven itself as both a fishing boat engine (aluminum bass) and a recreational outboard (small-centre consoles, inflatables). Enjoy best in class fuel efficiency along with the big performance that comes with BLAST® Technology (Boosted Low Speed Torque).

The BF60 does not come with a propeller. Please consult with your Honda Dealer for propeller application assistance.

Performance and Efficiency

• World-renowned Honda quality combines proven reliability and superior fuel efficiency, with no oil mixing.

• Weighing in at only 110 kg (243 lb)(with propeller mounted), the BF60 (LRTC model) is one of the lightest motors in its class. It's perfect for inflatables, skifs, and fishing boats.

• Easy Dock Steering® on the standard BF60 tiller version (with optional tiller kit) offers a full 50 degrees of steering to port and again to starboard. Combine this with the Variable Speed Trolling and fishermen have tremendous control.

• Boosted Low Speed Torque, or BLAST®, improves acceleration at low speeds. A quick movement of the throttle control activates the BLAST® system, advancing the ignition curve aggressively. "Hole Shot" is vastly improved as more horsepower gets the hull up on plane quicker.

• Lean Burn Control® increases fuel efficiency by allowing combustion to operate on a leaner air/fuel mixture. At cruising speed, this engine runs on up to 10% less fuel* than others in its class.

Reliability and Durability

• The Engine Alert System uses visual, audio and rpm reduction circuits to alert the operator of over-heating, low oil PSI and over-revving. This helps to prevent engine damage.

• The Corrosion Protection System is a patented "Double Sealed" multi-layered paint process. Sacrificial anodes and stainless steel technology, along with waterproof connectors, internally painted cooling passages, and a freshwater flushing device, all enhance corrosion protection.

• A fresh water flushport flushes debris and saltwater out of the engine. Painted interior cooling passages help extend the life of the outboard.

Convenience and Ease of Use

• There's always plenty of electric power with the 60 hp. Honda's exclusive neodymium magnet flywheel enables these engines to produce nearly twice as many charging amps as some competitors. The high output helps keep battery banks charged all day, even when running multiple accessories. The BF60 develops a total 27 amps and 22 charging amps.

• The 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.

• An optional tilt limit kit keeps the motor from rubbing against the bottom of a pontoon boat's sun deck.

• Easy access side-mounted oil filter and oil fillers simplify maintenance, while "screw-type" valve adjusters reduce maintenance costs.
