Default 6 speaker upgrade

I'm still pretty new to this forum but the reading has been great. My last bike had no tunes on it so when I bought my 08 Ultra last month that was the first thing on my mind. I was going to just do the fairing and tour pak with the MM651's and SS 4.520. My buddy almost had me convinced to leave the lowers as storage since he uses his a lot. He also rides without the tour pak mostly and I have a feeling mine will be on more than off. Question for the knowledge kings here is, if I go with a setup that I read on here of using the SS 4.520 amp to drive 2 MM651's in the tour pak and 4 DB651's for the front (one set in the fairing, one set in the lowers in parallel) what happens to the amp if I remove the tour pak thus taking the load off the rear outputs?

In a word...nothing. The amp will function normally.
