These are basic wiring diagams still sourcing out bike actual wiring schematics but we can see the extra switch pot for the brake control

here's a neat video of a system that works good for the brake control.

Found this Shunt 300 amp with digital meter if she reads Negative amp it will work perfect for the regen project.

Interesting Watt Meter/Balance. Would work well for extra battery pack projects.
