Yesterday, I tried reducing my regen from the usual 40% down to 20% and down to 0%.

Pros:
- The front end ride quality improved a lot!
- The flow through some turns improved.

Cons:
- In many turns, the front end traction and my confidence reduced.
- I had to drag the LHRB to compensate, which was not very smooth or consistent.
- The bike started jumping more nose up.

Overall, it was a good learning experience. Less regen is definitely better in fast flowy sections. More is better in slow, technical, and point-and-shoot sections.
