He is a bit of a master of this, having done this before a few times. Luckily he manged to finish the rebuild before Donny, so he took the repaired engine\/gearbox to Donny,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I was on hols the week before, arriving home on Friday, so I took my bike bits up on Sat, and set about putting the engine back in. It took all day, but after fixing a connection issue, fired straight up. I took it to the dyno and Mark run it up and down the gears, all seemed fine so I got scruted and signed on for Sunday races.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The test session went well, so was looking forward to the races. I had to start from the back, and was slow, stiff and lapped. I came dead last, but I loved it and the bike was great.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1440\" src=\"https:\/\/www.888racing.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/PXL_20250531_082918591-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-246\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.888racing.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/PXL_20250531_082918591-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/www.888racing.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/PXL_20250531_082918591-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.888racing.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/PXL_20250531_082918591-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.888racing.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/PXL_20250531_082918591-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.888racing.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/PXL_20250531_082918591-2048x1152.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.888racing.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/PXL_20250531_082918591-624x351.jpg 624w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1440\" src=\"https:\/\/www.888racing.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/PXL_20250531_122716495-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-247\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.888racing.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/PXL_20250531_122716495-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/www.888racing.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/PXL_20250531_122716495-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.888racing.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/PXL_20250531_122716495-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.888racing.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/PXL_20250531_122716495-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.888racing.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/PXL_20250531_122716495-2048x1152.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.888racing.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/PXL_20250531_122716495-624x351.jpg 624w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1440\" src=\"https:\/\/www.888racing.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/PXL_20250531_134905250-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-248\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.888racing.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/PXL_20250531_134905250-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/www.888racing.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/PXL_20250531_134905250-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.888racing.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/PXL_20250531_134905250-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.888racing.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/PXL_20250531_134905250-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.888racing.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/PXL_20250531_134905250-2048x1152.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.888racing.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/PXL_20250531_134905250-624x351.jpg 624w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1440\" src=\"https:\/\/www.888racing.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/PXL_20250531_202336711-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-249\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.888racing.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/PXL_20250531_202336711-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/www.888racing.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/PXL_20250531_202336711-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.888racing.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/PXL_20250531_202336711-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.888racing.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/PXL_20250531_202336711-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.888racing.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/PXL_20250531_202336711-2048x1152.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.888racing.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/PXL_20250531_202336711-624x351.jpg 624w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After my gearbox went pop at Snett, I managed to get a replacement one, I then dropped the engine and Simon set about swapping the gearboxes.
