W124 Headlights dim when ABS engages?

During the recent winter i had the pleasure of playing with my ABS system on the snow-covered roads.
I noticed something a bit strange.. My headlights dim very noticeable when the ABS kicks in. Is that normal?

When i turn the starter with the headlights on, they almost doesn't dim at all.
Does the ABS system really require more electrical power than the starter motor?
