| 225 hp | OHC - 6 cylinders, 60° V6 VTEC™, 24 valves | 5300 - 6300 RMP | X | L: 272 X / XC: 287 U / UC: 291 |
The BF225 is packed with power, equipped with the latest Honda VTEC system, which has the same valve timing system used for our award winning racing engines. The 24 valve, V6 engine with BLAST™ offers explosive low speed acceleration whilst the unique ECOmo feature ensures optimal fuel economy at low speeds. The combination of power and comfort make the BF225 leave its 2-stroke competitors in its wake.
Boosted Low Speed Torque (BLAST)
Honda’s revolutionary BLAST™ technology provides strong hole shot performance, getting the hull on the plane quicker. This air/fuel ratio and ignition-timing technology boosts engine torque at low RPM under rapid acceleration conditions. It’s NMEA compatible, meaning all engine data including speed, fuel consumption, cruising distance, etc. can be displayed on the GPS screen.
Variable Valve Timing & Lift Electronic Control (VTEC)
The VTEC™ system, which optimises power and efficiency at all engine speeds, was born out of Honda’s passion for racing. Developed for high performance engines, VTEC varies the lift and duration of the intake valves to provide optimum performance at both low and high RPMs. VTEC delivers smooth stable idling at low speeds, while increasing valve lift at higher speeds, which broadens the torque curve and top end power.
