The Honda 24701-881-812 Gearshift Lever is a genuine OEM component designed for BF75, BF100, and BF8 portable outboard motors. As a direct Honda replacement, this lever is sourced to the same specifications as the original part it replaces, ensuring proper engagement and operation within the gearcase shift mechanism. Confirm your motor's serial number against the fitment table before ordering, as Honda supersedes shift components at production breaks.
Key Features
- Genuine Honda OEM — sourced directly from Honda, this lever matches the original shift geometry and pivot dimensions required for clean, positive gear selection in BF-series outboard motors.
- Exact Shift Engagement — correct lever profile ensures the shift rod moves fully into forward, neutral, and reverse positions without slop or binding that a worn or damaged lever causes.
- Broad BF-Series Coverage — fits BF75, BF100, and BF8 outboard motors, including both standard and portable outboard variants.
- Verify by Serial Number — Honda updates gearcase components across production runs; check your outboard's serial number against the compatibility table to confirm this is the correct lever for your unit.
The gearshift lever is the mechanical link between the operator's shift control and the gearcase shift rod on the outboard motor. When the throttle/shift handle is moved, this lever translates that input into linear movement of the shift rod, engaging forward, neutral, or reverse gear inside the lower unit. A worn, cracked, or broken gearshift lever produces imprecise or incomplete gear engagement — making it difficult to shift cleanly or hold a selected gear under load — and should be replaced promptly to restore normal control of the outboard.
