It’s Test week!!
Excited to start off this years UK season, with a two day test this weekend. I’m well excited to get back out on the old girl and spin some laps!
With a day and then a testday . It’s a jam packed weekend with lots of testing and settting up planned. Looks like a mix of weather conditions, means I can practice my wet riding for most likely a wet RD1 at brands hatch 😂

What an amazing year 2024 was!!
I loved every minute of it, finally riding a 600 and it living up to what I expected 100%.
Not just all the people who have supported me financially. So many people made this year special and one to remember.
2025 is going to be even bigger and even better. I have so many ideas and plans I can’t wait.
Here’s to an epic year.

Huge thanks to for providing me an amazing helmet. 4 days out in the south of Spain and the was so comfy. I’ve gone through a lot of them, thankfully this one lasted the full trip!
Excited to work with helmetcity in 2025!

Nolimits Brands GP
Endurance race Clubman 600
I’ve never been round brands GP on a 600. And I didn’t have the test day on Friday so my first time was qualifying. Going out with the wrong suspension setting in the bike I had to come back in as the bike was bottoming out everywhere. Putting the correct setting in the bike I managed to do 2 flying laps getting a 1:42.7. No where near where I wanted to be. But thankfully managed to get a 1:42.0 putting us 36 and 10th in class. With a slightly slow start we were 12th in class. But Ollie managed to claw back places putting us in a good position for our first 30 mins. I went into the weekend thinking it was just going to be a easy 30 mins just chill slightly faster than a test day pace.
Boy oh boy was I wrong.
30mins of riding as fast as I could. The suspension set up wasn’t quite how I wanted. But I think that had more to do with the difference between Pirelli and Bridgestones. So the first 30 mins I mainly did 40 and 41s and then finally into 39s. Making up a lot of places coming in at 5th in class. I came in and sorted out the suspension and then I had to go back out. It felt like 10 mins!!!
This time the bike felt much better, a lot more support from the bike and much more confidence. Immediately getting into the low 38s. It was a good session with lots of overtaking and being able to find better lines and markers. I’m not sure but I believe during this stint we were 3rd in class. However we got a 20second penalty for speeding in the pitlane 🤦♂️. To be fair to us neither Ollie nor I had a speedo fitted and had to eye ball it. Which isn’t easy when you just been doing 150mph!!

Massive thanks to .g.racing for their continued support
Cheers to for being pit crew

RD 3
After so many awesome weekends in a row, this weekend was a bit of a bummer.
Friday
The test day on Friday was a complete wash out, so only going out for 3 sessions and being happy with the wet setting in the bike. I called it a day.
Saturday
Qualifying was meant to be in the wet, but waking up Saturday morning it was bone dry and blue skies. I was nervous as had no experience round Snetterton on a 600 in the dry. However just before heading out, it started to rain. Throwing the wet front in. I must say it was the worst time ive ever had on track.
Race 1-
Qualifying 11th in class and 26th on the grid. I got a bit of a rubbish start losing places. I pushed for the first two corners trying to make up some time.Trying out Bridgestone slicks, but not being able to find the right suspension setup. After making a couple overtakes, it left me in 20th and 8th in class. Definitely not where I wanted to be and a big step back from the podiums at pembrey.
Race 2-
Starting 25th and 8th in class. Getting an okay start, the bike infront of me missed a gear and forcing me to take extreme avoiding action. Losing lots of time and places. The bike was handling slightly better after a couple changes to the bike, but was still far from how I wanted it. Finishing the race In 21st and 6th in class.
Sunday
Deciding to get the bike setup on Bridgestones on a full testday we put the Pirelli’s back in
Race 3
A disappointing DNS due to the bike not starting, Where a faulty quickshifter interfered with the coils.
Race 4-
Starting from the back and 38th I was determined to finish well. Overtaking 12 people on the first lap, 10 in the first 2 corners, I tried hard to keep up with the front runners, but even after overtaking so many people on the first lap, there was to large a gap to the group infront, I wasn’t able to bridge it with the bike not behaving, having no quickshifter and the suspension not 100%. I brought it back in 21st 6th in class again.
Huge thanks to .g.racing and
Also to and for all the cool photos

Pembrey- Bemsee Rd 2
Full Race report, Bloody insta and their character limit 🙄
What a weekend, not without its up and downs.
Starting on Friday it was wet and a bit miserable, so I missed the first session out. Finally getting out for a couple sessions before lunch, and getting used to a brand new slipper clutch. Which was very new and very Bitey.
Learning Pembrey again and now on a 600 took longer than expected. Not being happy with the bike or the setup. Made a couple changes and made a tyre swap and felt better. Ending the day with a sub 1.04. Not where I really wanted to be but I was okay with it.
Saturday-
-Qualifying
I struggled to find the pace and couldn’t put a fast enough time in so ended up 18th and 8th in class.
-Race 1
It was mixed conditions before going out, making a choice to go full wets, pulling up to the starting grid realising it was full drys. I was abit worried since Bridgestone wets and a drying track don’t gel well. Taking it easy making sure to bring it back in one peace. Managed to finish 7th in class.
-Race 2
Got an okay start, still around the same place as the first race once again starting 18th on the grid but 10th in class. Watching Tom walker get crashed into on the first lap, it looked mega nasty slightly put me off. But it didn’t matter as a technical problem ended my race prematurely.
Front sprocket nut falling off, may or may not have been my own fault…
Sunday-
Having searched to no avail around the track for two hours for my sprocket nut, i finally resolved it by modifying a nut of none other than an SV650 😂
-Race 3
With an okay start from 19th on the grid and 9th in class, I managed to take quite a few over takes in the first couple laps. Levelling a guy out down the main straight, gave me another position in class. And constantly defending divebombs down the straights, but they never stuck. I guess that slipper clutch really makes a difference!!!! Then bridging a big gap and passing another rider promoted me up to 3rd in class and 10th overall!!!
My first podium in this class I couldn’t have been happier, I worked so hard that race and was giving 150% the whole time. I was ecstatic.
-Race 4
Starting 14th and 5 in class, with my worse start of the weekend. I lost 2 positions of the line, but being brave and just full sending it. I came out 10th and 2nd in class from the first corner, but being able to control my excitement I tried to hang on to the fast boys in front of me. Slowing losing them, I settled into pace. Being passed down the back straight on pure horsepower. He then took off and I couldn’t hold his pace. Settled comfortably in 3rd it was just all about bringing it home. With a pretty easy and lonely middle and end of the race. I couldn’t be happier with how the day ended. Or had it…
Race 5….?
Yes, it happened. Some nutter let me ride his Minitwin. Adam Frewin So starting at the back of the Minitwin grid, row 10 P30. I was excited to tear it up again, making my way through the field. I absolutely loved it, although a bike blowing up right infront of me and a massive cloud of smoke blinding me, I had no option but to slow from top of 6th gear to 10mph due to not being able to see F*** all. Once the smoke cleared getting back up to speed again, although the bike had a stand front end in it. It was great fun and what a laugh to be back out on a Minitwin.
Maybe I will make a return??
Huge thanks to RG Racing for valued support and to the mother for the nice new rear tyre she brought me for the weekend, even tho it was wet most of it…
Also big thanks to SportBU for their support and keeping me fit, definitely needed in the longer races on Sunday!!
Awesome pictures as always by Bourne Photo

Round 1- 2024 MRO Clubman 600
Brands hatch 9th/6th/4th/6th
Having only ridden the 675 in Andalucia, finally riding it in the uk at a much smaller track like brands hatch was definitely an eye opener. You definitely feel the power a lot more when the track is a third of the size!!
Friday was a washout, raining for 5/6 sessions of the day. Not having a new rear wet, I only went out for two wet sessions slowly learning how to ride brands on a 6. Session after lunch was dry, allowing me to finally spin some laps properly. But I just ended up being a rolling roadblock while out testing with MRO 600 and Powerbikes.
Finished P29, P11 in class in qualifying with a 55.0,
First race I got swamped into the first couple corners dropping down to P32, slowly moving up and finishing P26, 9th in class. It was unreal, the speed of racing is nothing like a Minitwin. Moves a lot more aggressive, and if you aren’t passing you will be passed. I loved it, I finally felt like a real racer!!
Race 2 was much later in the day, the sun had gone and the track temp had dropped a lot. Starting in P23 7th in class was a bit tedious of a race as didn’t have loads of grip due to a cold track, and a suspension issue impeded the bike turning in. Bringing it back in P20 6th in class.
Sunday morning, was completely wet, having to use my old wets. Starting P18, 6th in class I managed to get a good start making up a couple places in the first lap getting up to P12 3rd in class. Chasing right behind 2nd, but losing eventually losing 3rd from a massive slide due to old tyres coming out of Clearways. Giving me my best finish so far in P14 4th in class. I Guess I like the wet on the 675 as much as the Minitwin!!
The last race was a bit of a lonely one slowly being dropped and just not having enough pace to keep up. Finishing my 4th race of the weekend with P18, 6th in class.
It was an amazing weekend, learned so much and managed to score decent points, next stop for Bemsee is Prembrey. A track I love.
Thanks to .g.racing for all their continued support. I couldn’t do it without them. Thanks to for their suspension expertise helping me set up the bike for cold dreary England

It is official!! 🚨BSB BMW F900R CUP!!!🚨
I am going to be racing the BMW F900R in the F900 Cup as a support class to British Superbikes.
It was a distant dream that I would ever race but I never thought that I would be able to race at a British championship level such as BSB.
I cannot wait to receive the bike and get some seat time. It is going to be a big stepping stone for me moving from the small low horsepower SV650 to the F900R. But I'm ready for the challenge that it will bring and excited to be surrounded by an experienced and competitive grid to be able to really push and force me to be racing at 100% all the time.
I will keep you updated the whole way through this extraordinary journey, from receiving the bike to pre-season testing to the first round in Navarra!!! So keeping checking my instagram at or .g.racing or on Facebook Harry Gower Racing or RG Racing for what we are up to next.

Well what a year it has been.
It has been incredibly successful, with a race win, and many many podiums. The fact that I am finally racing is still unreal to me. I begged my parents for many years to let me race and was always met with the same answer, however I worked hard and got better in the Trackdays I did to prove myself. It just goes to show that you truly can do something if you really put your mind to it. I just want to give a massive thank you to the Bemsee Paddock, where I spent most of my time this year and definitely most of my money. The sense of community is immense and everyone just wants to help out. This has definitely saved my weekends a couple times, when the downsides of racing start to show and the large amount of spares that l lug around just aren't enough. The Minitwins boys are the first to hand it out. want to say thanks to Andy at ATP racing for all the help, and Tony botto for letting me borrow his bike to get the win at Cadwell, and also to and her family for their continued support throughout the year. I don't think this year could have been more eventful, from mechanical problems to legendary saves to let's just say entertaining crashes.
Being able to compete and truly show how fast I could be this year is something I have been dreming of for years. Blood, sweat, tears and alot of hard work and track side mechanics has gotten me through the year and I can not wait for next year.
Huge thanks to .g.racing as none of this would be possible without him. He has funded my high speed addiction, been my personal chauffeur, crew chief, nutritionist and at times my therapist. Dad, you've been amazing and I couldn't have asked for a better more supportive father.
Heres to an even more crazy, more high risk and definitely some much better results.

Donington Park-
This was one crazy, paint rubbing weekend.
Friday-
With a slow start to the testday, I slowly got up to pace. Cautious of the big flowing bends, not wanting to make a compromising mistake. By the end of Friday, I was quite comfortable on the bike and putting out some good times.
Saturday-
Qualifying RMT-
With qualifying first thing in the morning I got some laps in, but couldn’t get up to pace. So was 5th in class with a time of 1.23.3.
Not ideal, so hope I can get a good start and progress further up.
Race 1-
My first RMT race was okay, I didn’t have a great start, so had to make up a far few positions. I finally caught up to Simon and passed him, and started heading for James Svensen. If only I had another lap I would have got a second, but walking away with a 3rd from the first race.
Race 2-
Starting 15th and 2nd in class, I got another bad start. Putting me 4th in class, Simon Harvey and James svensen and I were all very close for the entire race, with multiple overtakes per lap. It was anybody’s guess at who would come out on top. Coming down the back straight on the last lap, I was 4th with James Svensen and and Simon Harvey in front of me. I had to make a last effort to get one of them. Not normally being of the latest brakers, but still being able to. I waited for both of them to brake first. Then hitting the brakes and hopping for the best. Thinking that I wasn’t going to make the corner, I just threw it in and hoped for the best, realising I was going to make the corner. And then leaving and being infront of both Simon and James. With an awesome last corner double overtake I was happy to walk away with a second.
Sunday-
Race 3-
With a better start, this time not losing any places except to James and his superhuman starts. Moving up a couple positions I closed in on James, and overtook him on lap 5. Then as the races on Sunday were 10laps, and my head gaskets had gone. The bike was sat at 120°C half way through the race.
Lap 9 the bike started bogging and jumped out of gear going down crainer. Going down the back straight, James just flew past while I had a lack of power. The bike then cooled down slightly and I managed to catch him, but wasn’t close enough to make a move into the final corner. Finishing the race In P3
Race 4-
With a better start, I wasn’t able to get away with the front group. Stuck behind people I knew I was faster then. Slowly making my way through the field. Sat comfortably in 2nd for most of the race. I finished 2nd in a pretty uneventful race compared to the rest of the paint rubbing weekend.
For a weekend were I was not putting it all on the line to be able to bring it home sunny side up for once. It was an awesome weekend of battles and crazyness. With some of the closest racing I have ever had.
Big thanks to RG Racing who makes this possible.
