What do you mean by Boom Pods? You putting a tour pack on?
I would go with aftermarket. Fill us in on what you want to end up with when your all done, and we can recommend components. Do you want speaker lids for your saddlebags? Do you have a budget in mind? Is FM radio reception important?

I have the perfect thing for you.

That is the best you can get for half your budget. I have this in my garage waiting to be installed. Talk to Bill and ask for the quick detach wiring for the pods. He threw that in with mine.

I believe Pioneer74 is pointing you in the right direction. I don't believe there's much better out there when you consider bang for your buck. My budget was way smaller but I think mine will turn out nice. Soundstream pn4.520, 2 pairs of 6.5" JBL GTO608C speakers and adapter rings for $240 shipped. I don't believe this setup will even come close to the Biketronics but should still make for a nice system.

Aftermarket all the way!! $2,000 is a great budget. Pioneer74 is correct. As in aftermarket speakers IMHO the Biketronic Hat's 7P1's are the only way to go for what your trying to achieve. Trust me you would not be dissapointed with that set-up! Plus a lifetime warranty and the best customer service to boot!!

but you are correct. Nothing high grade or high quality about Boom Audio products, PERIOD!
To the OP, don't waste your time or money on this stuff sir. You can do as Pioneer74 stated and wind up with a killer setup for a really good price. Those 7.1" in the fairing and rear pods will blow your mind. And for your budget, you can get the 6x9 lids from BT as well, have them painted to match, and still be under $2k.

$2000 is a HUGE budget if you are going to do all the install yourself, which is very easy. I have less than $800 in my system after painting my lids and selling my HK head unit for $300 on eBay. However, I don't have the rear pods to contend with. I'd HIGHLY suggest doing a head unit upgrade as well because that will truly unleash the sound quality of everything. Here's my setup:
Sony MEX-GS600BT head unit
BT retro radio kit
SS PN4.520D amp (some other good options for a little more money)
BT 7.1s in the fairing
Hogtune bag lids
Pioneer TS-D6902 6x9s
Pay specific attention to what a few people say on here like UltraNutz, GlacerPearl and Pioneer74 as they have all been there, done that. They can give you unbiased opinions on what is the best quality product for the money. I'd suggest giving Bill a call at Biketonics and ask him about a package deal for everything as it will be well within your budget. You might also ask him about a price if you also get the bag lids and BT speakers. Quality product, lifetime warranty and GREAT customer attention and service. Good luck and let us know what you end up with.
