Are you after something like this Tom?
regen brakes are very uncommon, it doesnt make enough power to bother with. http://www.mobsol.com.au/p/1141304/mobility-scooter-ctm-hs-928.html

Crappers! NO!
I have a two wheeled stand up scooter with a seat that I bought to use at autocross events. I would use to drive to work but I live on the high side of the wabash river valley and work on the other side so I have a large hill to go down and a mile on the other side is a battery killing hill to climb. My brake pads are worn down too. If I could get a regen braking bike I could have more climbing power.

I'd just make your battery pack ~25+% bigger. The end result should be about the same.
