Honda 200HP iST | BF200DXDA

The BF200DXDA runs Honda's iST digital throttle and shift on the standard-rotation side of its 200 hp, 25-inch-shaft platform, controlling throttle and gear changes electronically rather than through a mechanical cable. It weighs 613 pounds, starts electrically, and its 3583cc EFI six-cylinder reaches full throttle somewhere between 5000 and 6000 rpm. What a digital-throttle boat needs A helm already set up for iST is required, not a cable-and-lever console, so confirm compatibility before ordering; this is not a swap onto a boat rigged for mechanical steering. Rotation here is standard rather than the counter-rotation gearing Honda also builds on this platform, so it suits a single-engine install without an opposite-turning propeller. Equipment on this motor Equipment runs to the digital throttle-and-shift hardware, the onboard charging system, trim and tilt you run off a switch, and a fitting for flushing the cooling passages, plus the owner's manual. There's no propeller in the crate, so one needs to be sourced to suit the boat. Care to plan for A break-in period still applies to a new motor like this before regular full-throttle use, and the freshwater flush port should get used after every trip in saltwater to keep the cooling passages clear for the long run. Since there's no pull cord, a reliable battery is what gets this one running each outing. Does this have counter rotation? No. Is a propeller included? No, source one separately.
