Quick Buy
The Honda BF20DK2 SHU combines 20 HP performance with the compact dimensions and straightforward operation expected from a portable outboard motor. Its 350 cc, twin-cylinder, four-stroke OHC engine produces 14.7 kW / 20 HP, with a full-throttle operating range of 5,000–6,000 rpm.
The engine uses a carburettor with an accelerator pump and Honda's electronic PGM-IG ignition system for dependable starting and smooth operation. Water cooling and through-propeller exhaust contribute to efficient and refined operation.
The SHU configuration features manual recoil starting and tiller steering, making it particularly suitable for boats where simple, direct engine control is preferred. The transmission provides Forward-Neutral-Reverse (F-N-R) gears, while the 2.08:1 gear ratio delivers useful thrust across different operating conditions.
The short shaft (S) is designed for a recommended transom height of approximately 433 mm. Engine tilt and positioning are manually operated, keeping the system simple and practical.
A built-in 12 V / 6 A alternator provides charging output for a battery and can support compatible onboard electrical equipment while the engine is running.

Recommended Boat Applications
The Honda BF20DK2 SHU is a practical choice for inflatable and RIB boats, aluminium fishing boats, fibreglass boats and other small to medium-sized recreational craft.
The most important requirement is that the boat is designed for a short-shaft outboard (S / approx. 433 mm) and is rated by its manufacturer for an engine of 20 HP. Boat length alone should not determine engine selection – always consider transom height, maximum permitted horsepower and engine weight, expected load and the boat's intended use.
Who it’s for
For boats rated for a 20 HP engine with a compatible transom and permitted engine weight. Configuration: short S shaft; tiller steering. Check the exact variant before ordering.
FAQ
Which configuration does the Honda BF20DK2SHU offer?
20 HP; short S shaft; tiller steering; manual starting.
Will it fit my boat?
Check maximum permitted engine power and weight, transom height and installation requirements in the boat documentation. Hull length alone does not establish compatibility.
What should I confirm for installation?
Provide the boat model and exact product code. Confirm the propeller and fuel system. Delivery contents must be checked for the specific SKU.
How should the propeller be selected?
Selection depends on hull design, loaded boat weight and the engine operating range. Do not choose diameter and pitch by horsepower alone; confirm suitability for the specific installation.
Which details should I send before ordering?
Provide your boat model, rated maximum engine power and weight, transom height and preferred steering arrangement. Refer to the selected variant and order confirmation for availability and lead time.
