The Force 125 HP outboard motor, produced from 1984 to 1989, was a popular choice for recreational boaters seeking a powerful and reliable engine. This two-stroke, inline six-cylinder motor boasted a displacement of 125 cubic inches (2.05 liters) and delivered a maximum output of 125 horsepower. It featured a compact design, lightweight construction, and a robust powerhead, making it suitable for a variety of boats, from small fishing vessels to larger cruisers. The Force 125 HP was known for its smooth and responsive performance, with a strong mid-range thrust and a relatively high top speed.

The Force 125 HP outboard engine was equipped with a number of features designed to enhance its performance and reliability. It incorporated a reed valve induction system, which provided efficient fuel delivery and combustion. A rotary valve exhaust system ensured optimal scavenging and power output. The engine featured a large-capacity oil reservoir, providing ample lubrication for extended use. The Force 125 HP also boasted a durable stainless steel propeller shaft and an easily accessible maintenance system, simplifying routine servicing and repairs.
