Honda 2.3 tiller extension recommendation please

My tender oars came in two parts, the handle end fits nicely on the Suzuki grip. Free and normally attached to the tender.

I've been looking at this one but one review suggests it won't fit the Honda 2.3 without a bit of exra padding

Does anyone have a better recommendation?

I remember from when I had the Honda 2hp that the tiller is too small for most tiller extensions. Padding doesn't work that well as it tends to slip eventually, and makes it harder to take the extension off and on again. I think rather than buying one I would experiment with what you can find as per the other two suggestions. The trouble with those bought extensions, apart from costing silly money for what they are, is that they are designed for much bigger outboards than the little Honda.
 
Forgot to add - Steve66 on here knows everything there is to know about those Honda's - he may well have the answer you want

Bought one of these for same Honda outboard. Needed to pad it out with a layer of inner tube and shorten a bit for optimum length to use with my 240 dinghy. Works very well with the Honda twist throttle and makes dinghy handling easier. I leave it attached to the outboard all the time.

To be honest i have never used one. I had one fitted to a mercury 2.5 and i found it too long and cumbersome so removed it and aint used one since. I havent ever seen one being used on a Honda. Sorry cant help ya on this one
