Pruchased my BF225 in 2009. In 2015 had to replace the lower unit due to corrosion. I was out of warranty by one year. Honda sold me a new lower unit for half the price ($1600). Now in 2017 there is a hole in the block and heads. Water shooting out under the cowling all over the place. Honda said sorry but we can't help you. I got a repair estimate of $8000 to replace the block and heads. I'm really disappointed I only got 8 years out of this motor. Will never purchase another Honda product again.
