Like an updated vapor seperator fastener for easier dissassembly during maintenance. New oil pump & cylinder head gasket shapes that provide better water drainage to help prevent corrosion. An optimized combustion chamber shape that maximizes efficient combustion and helps ensure consistent engine performance. And the thickness of the starter motor mount and the rigidity of its seal have been strengthened to ensure consistent starting performance.
True 5 Warranty: Unmatched peace of mind
Honda's True 5 Warranty is the best in the business. This transferable, non-declining warranty is the same on the last day as it is on the first.
Honda Quality
Our outboards share many technologies and components used in Honda vehicles, with all the benefits of years of proven Honda engineering, precision manufacturing and reliability.
Engine Alert System
The Engine Alert System monitors vital engine functions and prevents engine damage by alerting the operator of: overheating, water in fuel, low oil PSI, battery, over-rev, and critical engine function.
3-Way Cooling System
Three separate cooling systems keep the cylinder heads running cooler for long-term durability.
Simple, Effortless Control
iST: Superb Control

New Updated iST Controls
The iST controls offered with our new BF115, 140, and 150 models are our most ergonomic, functional, and tactile designs yet. Features like an intuitive 5-button multi-function panel and single-lever neutral lock with highly visible neutral indicator are the very definition of intuitive, user-friendly controls. All drive-by-wire models are updated to include the same iST-controlled automatic tilt, trim support, and cruise control features found on our flagship BF350 V8.
Multi Engine Applications
iST offers multi-engine applications, with fine tuning of throttle settings at any speed, enhanced docking and slow speed control, and a simple, easy to understand user interface. Available on select BF115, 140, and 150 models.
Easy Maneuvering
For multi engine applications, integration with joystick steering systems such as Dometic and UFlex makes maneuvering so much easier. From precise docking and trailering to anchoring systems that maintain the boat position, this feature brings maneuverability to a whole new level.
Easy Ownership
Superior battery charging for more usable power
The charging system offers an impressive 55 total amps with 40 amps of charging power for plenty of accessories.
Faster, easier maintenance
The BF115, 140, and 150 are designed to reduce maintenance time for routine tasks like oil and filter changes.
