Regen

Is there any information about using the highest level of the regenerative braking on second generation R1S? Does it put extra wear on the brakes?

Regen doesn't use the hydraulic brakes unless you turn on regen assist.

I have never seen a 'regen assist' option in the settings - where is that?

In the vehicle settings, but I don't remember exactly the tab. It is on by default, so yours is likely on if you've never messed with it.

I just went through all the settings and the only Regen settings are High, Medium and Low. No mention of Regen Assist anywhere. Nor does it state anywhere that High regen uses more brakes.

If you can find this screen please send a screenshot as I would like to disable it.

Looks like my Dual Large does not have that option.

It should. I have a ‘24 Dual Large R1T.

Do you have the Perf upgrade? I do not.

I do not. You need to go to the Settings app, select Vehicle -> Driver Assist, and then scroll to the bottom:

What version of the software are you on? I also notice you're in Canada (eh?). Is it possible certain features are not available in Canada? You don't have the Auto high beams option either.

The latest software maybe a Canada thing?

It isn't a Canada thing. I don't have it either. I figured it was a standard pack thing. Maybe it's a Gen 2 thing? Then again, I don't even have the highest regen setting with the standard pack.

If you're worried about saving your brakes, you want to keep regen on as high as possible. The more it uses regen, the less your brakes are involved.
