Can someone ID this Honda for me? I'm looking at buying it for a low price from a local seller, who says it's been in storage and currently won't start.

He says it's a 4 stroke too.

Any information on things to look at, gotchas in repairs, etc would be appreciated. Also any info on fuel mix for it would be good.

Re: ID this Honda?

Been doing some research.. this might be a BF75L, maybe 1980 vintage?

I've seen I can get a remote throttle/shift kit for this, which is what I need, if that's the correct model.

A starter upgrade would be gravy.. any chance of going to electric start?

Thanks for reading,
Erik

Well, I bought it for $300. It's supposed to be non working, but I won't have a chance to check that for a few weeks probably. I need to get a gas tank set up for it too.

But, it looks nice and clean and like it will work, so I took the leap. For that price it's hard to go too wrong.

Serial is B75-3005265

If anyone can give me a year or anything for the motor I'd appreciate it, plus any info on electric start upgrades if possible...but so far I think as long as I can make it run I'll be pretty happy with this :)
