No much love for boom audio here. Buy once cry once. What are your goals?

Many have gone the RF route with a total package deal.
Me being a cheap Bastard, did the MMats/Stinger amp route. Best thing I ever did!

In the same place as OP. What specific model # would sugges on speakers? What amp would you suggest if lower speakers would be added later but could work with 4 speakers for now

Mmats PA601.4cx I ran them in the fairing and lowers on my 2012 Ultra Classic.
Amp Stinger SPX700x4 this is a good match and you will retain FM if that is important.

Got it. Thanks for the info. 4 speakers and the amp for under 900 is a good start
