Honda 2017 Honda 5 HP BF5DHSHNA Outboard Motor

A 2017 Honda 5 HP outboard, model BF5DHSHNA, pairing a single-cylinder, 127cc four-stroke with a 15-inch short shaft, manual tiller steering, and manual starting, built for small tenders and similarly light boats. What's under the cowling Displacement and cylinder count match Honda's smaller BF4 line at 127cc from one cylinder, with the same overhead-valve head and 2-valve layout, but this BF5 runs a higher 5,000 to 6,000 rpm full-throttle range and a 1.5-liter internal fuel tank that also accepts an external fuel line connection for longer trips. Fuel delivery is by carburetor on 87-octane unleaded gasoline, with wet-sump lubrication using FC-W 10W-30 oil, and the motor is water cooled and saltwater rated. What to check before buying Honda's spec sheet lists this unit at 59.5000 lbs, light enough to carry by hand, but confirm your transom suits a 15-inch short shaft before ordering, since a long-shaft version would sit differently on a taller transom. Trim and tilt and the starter are both manual, a 6-amp alternator can be added as an option but is not wired in from the factory, and shifting runs forward-neutral-reverse through a 2.08:1 gear ratio. The motor meets Honda's Ultra Low 3-Star CARB emissions standard and carries a 5-year True Warranty. Common questions Can I run an external fuel line? Yes, the internal 1.5-liter tank also accepts an external connector. How much does it weigh? 59.5000 lbs per Honda's spec sheet.
