I was wondering just which would fit , not just engine to concider what abt the electrical side n ignition im guessin its like openin a can of worms eh !
Engine is just a block of metal parts, if you get an X or RE (sorry I don't know engine codes) I don't see why you couldn't just plug it in and bleed the cooling system :) should be nothing else to consider
If you get a pre 2004 one though yes more things will need changing
There are not many plug n play engines avaiable for dtr/e/x. Most of them are from tzr. There are many engines that you could fit in your frame, but they all require nem engine suports, the engine's electrical part, carburation, etc. Here in portugal exists a dtr with a honda cr250 engine, and many other projects
so the short answer is a +04 re/x engine n nowt else as dont want to mess abt changin things Just to be clear i obviously realise the afore mentioned engine will be a straight swap , just was curious if anything shares the same engine out of a 04 onwards re/x cheers ppl Doo
