Engine breaking is caused by the engine slowing down which as a result slows the rear wheel down, so the quicker the engine loses revs the quicker the rear wheel will slow down, lighter flywheel means the engine gains and loses revs quicker due to lower inertia, which is why you'd definitely need a slipper clutch to change down to 2nd or 1st gear in a "spirited" fashion!
