You should have the robot re-inspected regardless of whether or not the weight was changed - nothing in the rule about re-inspections mentions weight.

T10

If a ROBOT is modified after it has passed Inspection, other than modifications described in T8 [interchangeable parts already inspected], that ROBOT must be re-Inspected.
Also note that if you plan to repeatedly switch gearboxes, the inspectors may consider them "interchangeable parts" and add all of them to your robot's weight.
