Unless i'm different, most people rely on that when burning thru twisties. Wonder of they built that in somehow, as i wouldn't think electric motors would naturally have any engine braking. Then again, never drove a electric vehicle of any type.

I'm yet to drive or ride anything, but I've passengered in a few EV/Hybrids and they have a deceleration when lifting off throttle, I imagine there would be the same thing on these bikes.
You could probably dumb it down to the brushes in a drill, there's a fair bit of torque/wrist twisting change the moment you let off the trigger, I would thing this would translate somewhat in the other forms of electric motors.
