Okay, interesting, so after the clearChart() if you _reuse_ the same chart object it seems to work, but if you (for example) wanted to replace the barchart with a Piechart, you would need to delete the old chart object and create a new one.
Try clicking the Delete button on this version of the fiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/davies147/1eu7rkvr/11/ If you have the console up you'll also see a backtrace/error if you mouse-over the "deleted" graph when an even fires that accesses the cleaned up data.
