Honda BF100A1LRT 100HP Outboard – 20in Shaft, Remote Mechanical, EFI

Description

Choose the Honda BF100A1LRT 100HP Outboard when a bay boat or fiberglass sport hull needs dependable 100 HP power without moving into a larger outboard class. The 1,496 cc inline four-cylinder engine lets you accelerate onto plane with useful power for fishing gear, passengers, and everyday coastal runs. Honda BF100A1LRT is a 4-stroke outboard with a 20-inch long shaft, electric starting, and remote mechanical controls for helm-based operation. Programmed Fuel Injection manages fuel delivery, while Power Trim & Tilt lets the driver adjust the engine position during takeoff, cruising, turns, and trailering.

The BF100A1LRT outboard motor produces its rated 100 HP at 5,900 RPM and operates across a 5,500 to 6,300 RPM full-throttle range. That spread gives the operator a clear reference when checking propeller selection and engine setup. With a 366-pound dry weight, this long-shaft Honda outboard requires a boat with suitable transom capacity and a manufacturer-approved 100 HP rating. The 2.33:1 gear ratio supports normal forward, neutral, and reverse operation while the 44-amp alternator provides charging capacity for common marine electronics and onboard accessories.
