Default Amp advice - simple batwing setup

I'm sure this has been covered a time or 2 so this should be an easy one! I have a Sony AX7000 currently installed and I just received the GZ 6.5 Coax GZCF speakers to replace what I'm currently running. I have no plans to ever run anymore then just the 2 speakers in the batwing fairing. What do you guys think would be the best setup as far as an amp would go that I can also fit in the fairing, hold up to the elements and power these speakers properly?

Thank you!

While many options out there.. a JL Audio MX500/4 would fit the bill. 250 watts bridged (can tweak higher) and marine rated. About $400

I run the little brother MX280/4 as one of my two amps on my bike.
