Description
Set the Honda BF115JXDA 115HP Outboard on a compatible 25-inch transom when an offshore center console needs digital shift and throttle control. Its 2,354 cc inline four-cylinder DOHC engine uses 16 valves and produces 115 HP at 5,250 RPM, providing useful power for properly rated fishing and recreational hulls. Honda BF115JXDA is an iST drive-by-wire 4-stroke outboard with Programmed Fuel Injection, electric starting, and Power Trim & Tilt. The X-long shaft is intended for boats designed around a taller transom.
At 485 lbs dry, the engine requires careful repower planning around transom strength, boat balance, and total operating load. Its 4,500–6,000 RPM full-throttle range gives owners a reference for propeller selection and post-installation setup. The 40-amp alternator supplies 30 charging amps for supported electronics, lighting, pumps, and other equipment. The listed oil capacity is 6.7 L with filter, while gearcase lubricant quantities and service intervals should be confirmed through the correct Honda manual.
