GX160

The flagship of Honda’s GX Engine range, professionals rely on the GX160 to deliver reliable, easy starting, fuel efficient performance, day in and day out.

COMMON APPLICATIONS

Being the Flagship model in Honda’s world-renowned GX Engine range, the GX160 can be used in all sorts of applications.

From Pressure Washers and Construction/Industrial equipment, to Tillers/Cultivators, Generators and Commercial Lawn & Garden Equipment, this bad boy has plenty of uses. Agricultural Equipment, Water Pumps, and even Go Karts, are powered by the GX160.

FUEL EFFICIENT, HIGH OUTPUT OPERATION

The GX160’s Precision Camshaft design offers precise valve timing and optimal valve overlap for better fuel efficiency.

It draws on decades of Honda engineering with its OHV design, delivering increased efficiency and optimal power transfer for where you need it.

And the GX160 incorporates a high compression ratio for better fuel efficiency than its competitors.

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 Heavy Duty Recoil Starter, the GX160’s features go on and on.

3 YEAR WARRANTY

The GX160, just like the entire GX Engine range, is covered by an extensive Honda 3 Year Warranty.

That 3 years is relevant to both Domestic and Commercial applications, so you can rest assured with the knowledge that your GX160 is built to last.

And should there be any issues, a nationwide network of 400+ authorised Honda dealers are there to back you up with all your parts & service requirements.
