Code:BF135DK1LCRU

Weight:214.000 Kgs
The Honda BF135DK1LCRU is a 135 HP four-stroke outboard featuring a counter-rotating gearcase, allowing its propeller to rotate in the opposite direction to a standard-rotation engine. It is intended primarily for twin-engine installation alongside a standard-rotation BF135, helping balance propeller torque and improve boat handling.
This version has a 508 mm (20″) long L shaft, electric starting and mechanical remote throttle and shift control. Its configuration includes electro-hydraulic Power Trim & Tilt and a 12 V/40 A alternator for battery charging and onboard electrical equipment.
It is particularly suitable for twin-engine RIBs, powerboats, leisure craft and sport-fishing boats typically around 6–9 m long, provided the boat is rated for a combined 270 HP and has a transom suitable for 20″ shafts. The control box, cables, gauges, steering system and counter-rotating propeller must be matched to the boat and the agreed supply package.
Quick Buy
The Honda BF135DK1LCRU is a dependable 135 HP four-stroke outboard designed primarily for twin-engine installations. Its counter-rotating gearcase turns the propeller in the opposite direction to a standard-rotation BF135. Pairing the two rotation directions helps reduce steering pull, balance propeller torque and improve stability during acceleration, manoeuvring and higher-speed operation.
The 2354 cc inline four-cylinder engine features a 16-valve DOHC cylinder head and Honda PGM-FI electronic fuel injection. This combination provides reliable starting, smooth acceleration, strong mid-range torque and efficient performance during extended cruising.
The LCRU version has a 508 mm (20″) long L shaft, electric starter and mechanical remote control. Throttle and gear selection are operated through a remote-control lever and conventional control cables. Electro-hydraulic Power Trim & Tilt allows the engine angle to be adjusted for load, speed and water conditions and enables the outboard to be raised when required.
Its 12 V/40 A alternator charges the starting battery and provides useful capacity for standard navigation instruments, lighting and other onboard equipment. Engine protection functions monitor oil pressure, temperature and engine speed.

Applications and additional equipment
The BF135DK1LCRU is intended primarily for use alongside a standard-rotation outboard of the same output. It is suitable for larger RIBs, powerboats, leisure craft and sport-fishing boats, typically around 6–9 m in length. Final compatibility depends on the boat’s permitted horsepower, transom height and construction, hull weight and intended operating load.
Installation may require a dual remote-control box, mechanical control cables and wiring harnesses, gauges, twin-engine hydraulic steering, batteries, fuel system components, fuel/water separators and a correctly sized counter-rotating propeller. Both engines and propellers must be properly matched and installed by a qualified marine technician.
Who it’s for
For boats rated for a 135 HP engine with a compatible transom and permitted engine weight. Configuration: long L shaft; remote steering. Check the exact variant before ordering.
FAQ
Which configuration does the Honda BF135DK1LCRU offer?
135 HP; long L shaft; remote steering; electric starting.
Are throttle and shift electronic or mechanical?
This version uses mechanical remote throttle and shift. Select compatible controls and cables for the installation.
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, remote controls, cables, instruments and steering system, plus the required starting battery. 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.
Is this a counter-rotating version?
Yes, it uses counter rotation. For a twin-engine installation, match rotation, propellers and controls; do not substitute a standard-rotation model based on horsepower alone.
