It's been a long time since you polished the ST1300.....the pipes are polished before the cats at least mine are. They are polished stainless from the point they exit the headers.But the Honda is a better value, IMO the Motus is about $10K over priced.
The ST13 header pipe discolors right at the CAT, just before the cans. Since they were not polished at that location, I would use red scotch brite pad with chrome polish to bring my 04 back to a satin look.
