Efficiency

The Honda GX390 comes with a digital CDI ignition system, an increased compression ratio for better fuel efficiency.

Design

With its recoil starter and automatic de-compression system the Honda GX390 is always easy to start.

Performance

The Honda GX390 includes precision engineered components and an improved piston design that results in lower vibration.

Features

• The OHV design enhances combustion efficiency
• A variable ignition timing (digital CDI) results in high power output, reduced fuel consumption and excellent exhaust emissions performance.
• Easy starting with an automatic decompression system and an easy-to-grip soft recoil starter handle
• High quality materials and purpose-built components ensure reliable long-term use
• Meets world’s most stringent environmental legislation
• Guaranteed low fuel and oil consumption
• Reduced vibration and noise level

Efficiency

The GX270 is easy to use and maintain thanks to its simple throttle control, large fuel tanks with dual oil drains.

Design

The GX270 has a sophisticated air intake, large capacity, and multi-chamber exhaust system.

Performance

The GX270’s ball bearing supported crankshaft and heavy duty balancer shaft creates better stability.

Common Applications

Perfect for domestic applications and light use, the new (2014) GP160 is designed to power those odd jobs around the home. From pressure washers to water pumps to generators, it will help get the task done reliably and on time. Of course, if it’s more power you’re after, including for commercial applications, it might pay to compare it with the flagship GX160. Click on the “Compare Products” icon in the top right of this page to see how the GP160 stacks up.

Great Fuel Efficiency

The GP160’s Precision Camshaft design offers precise valve timing and optimal valve overlap for better fuel efficiency. It draws on decades of Honda engineering – the GX160 in particular – with its OHV design, delivering increased efficiency and optimal power transfer for where you need it. A success overseas, its introduction into Australia further reinforces Honda’s reputation as a company that helps people get things done.

Easy to use

A ball bearing-supported crankshaft and precision engineered components result in greater stability and lower vibration for you, no matter what the application. The use of lightweight, noise-reducing materials and a forged steel crankshaft & rigid crankcase results in an exceptionally quiet engine that incorporates a large capacity, multi-chamber exhaust system. And with a simple Throttle Control, large Fuel Tank and Automotive Type Fuel Cap, Dual Oil Drains and Fills, an easily accessible Spark Plug and Recoil Starter, the GP160 is there to help you out.
