Here's another vid from MCN using an experienced street rider, a professional motorcycle racer and a full time motorcycle tester
They tested a 1000 Honda with and without ABS on a damp track, straight line panic stop from 70 mph (or may have been KPH I don't know lol).
The motorcycle racer always stopped the quickest in both tests
the professional tester always stopped second quickest in both tests
the experienced street rider always took the longest to stop in both tests
however every rider always stopped in a shorter distance with the ABS equipped bike vs the non ABS equipped bike, (even the professional racer)

ok just broke it down
John street rider 301 ft w/o abs .... 246 ft with abs
Reese pro mc racer 193 ft w/o ABS .... 137 ft with ABS
Bruce pro tester 216 ft w/o ABS .... 200 ft with ABS
