it's a problem we deal with and the reason the slipper clutch was invented. Not to mention auto throttle bliping etcetera. I race an 01 Suzuki and deal with this myself. it's a problem racing because you can't turn the bike till the rear is settled. when Bramma was racing here in the AFM I believe Eric Bostrum had turned the regen off for this reason. I was surprised when I saw Chris used it . For the most part it looks like it works well enough. Maybe more compression damping on the forks for tracks with long straights to keep more weight on the back tire .
I always thought that pure regenerative braking could never lock the rear wheel up - since when the wheel isn't moving it's generating no power and therefore has no resistance. Active power deceleration could lock up the wheel, but to my knowledge none of the standard controllers offer that. +Chris Jones?
I sort of misspoke. It's not a lock Per,say but the back wheel with no weight on it starts slipping (or hopping ) under regen. The wheel is still turning or trying to .
Well, under heavy braking on any motorcycle the weight comes off the rear wheel, so it's more likely to start sliding, especially if also applying rear brake. I've done that numerous times.
Hi Paul, the regen is only set to about 10 percent of the maximum forward torque. So about 56 Nm. Any more than this you will definitely lock it up. But some regen is important for steadying the bike especially through flip flops. If it freewheeled you wouldn't be able to adjust speed with a chopped throttle alone. You can set the PM150DZ up to do regen through a pot, but its just one more thing to think about.
Dat wheelie though, and the lap!
WOW , negative amps , is that regenerative braking on a race track . holy smokes .
Wow. A 6kWh battery is about a sixth of a gallon of gasoline. Excellent work.

It's fantastic
Will this motorcycle be a production model???
Would love to take it to production, but sadly the market for $50,000 electric superbikes is quite limited.
@@jonescg ....LOL , I could never afford that! Too impoverished.
Rocking!
looks like regen is locking the back tire at the end of the straight messing with turn entry.
