when your riding the bike using gas, and not using the electric. the front wheel is moving and the electric is not in use, it charges the batteries.
 
With a chevy alternator driven by friction or belt. At least that is what Denny is showng me.

Man, I have to say that is the coolest looking trike I've ever seen. It would have been cool enough just being hybrid, but it is slick and black - just amazing.

Not in this case. The 24 and 36 volt kits have a regenerative brake, which means it functions as a charger when the wheel is turning, but not pulling. Actually I am using a small PM motor with a weed eater engine as a stand alone charger. I tried an alternator, but it is too heavy to suit me. I am looking for a small, light one though. The advantage of the PM motor is that it also works as a starter. Sorry for the confusion.
