Default speaker choices? Please help

I have read through many pages here in the audio forum and have decided on a few components for my fairing 2 speaker system upgrade:
1)Alpine UTE-52BT Digital media receiver
2)Rockford Fosgate PBR300X2 Punch 300-Watt 2-Channel Boosted Rail Amplifier
3)Hawg Wired Universal Radio Install Kit HUA470- do to the better head unit bracket.
That being said I am having a hard time choosing speakers I looked at the biketronics 7.1 but they are a little too expensive for my taste and the go to polks seem to be letting people down as of late. What would you guys suggest are a good set of speakers for my application? Any help is greatly appreciated!

Spring for the Biketronics 7.1 ...... $269 includes adapter rings and lifetime warranty !!

Second choice: Infinity Kappa 62.11i $135 , but then you'd need the adapter rings at $35 ...

Is there a benefit from ordering speakers directly from BT?

I would call Bill directly, and see if they have any current 'specials' !! They are his speakers, let him know you are a forum member, and I'm sure he'll get you the best price !! Customer service through BT is a guarantee, if you buy second hand, who knows !!

+1 for the Infinity 62.11's. Clean, loud and responsive if the BT stuff isn't in the budget.

After much research and suggestions here, I just ordered the Biketronics BT7P1 7.1" Titan II's today.

I think I got a pretty good deal here: http://www.cruisercustomizing.com/ti...rt/BIKET-BT7P1

I found a coupon on the internet for $10 off, so I got them for $259.99 with free shipping.

These must be selling very well as everyone is out of stock.
My tentative shipping date is March 13th.
