I wouldn’t use the endo as speed facts, I watched our motorcycle instructor do them at low speeds showing how powerful modern disc brakes are.
Also had a friend on a two lane road get cutoff by a person who didn’t want to miss their turn, he clamped the front brake so hard the bike flipped over onto its gas tank.
Endo on its own, agreed, is not indicative of speed. Crossing most of a 4-lane intersection in 3 frames (1/10th of a second) indicates insane speed.
The endo indicates “oh shit, I screwed up and am panic braking, and also I am bad enough at riding a motorcycle that I can’t manage my braking.”
