Brand new for all those things it shouldn't not be over $400.

I would probably be closer to $350

Those speakers are pretty low in sensitivity at 88db. These Infinity speakers will play much louder, and match up real nice with the RF amp.

go with the Infinity 6.11's.

RF ~180 (wow!!! they went up) - ebay
RF 10 Gauge install kit (extends the warranty with 1 year)! ~ 23 bucks! just found on amazon Prime (search Rockford fosgate RFK10 - 10 AWG power only install kit - you do not need the RFK10i kit)
infinity's 62.11i ~115 ebay
speaker rings ~ 20 (easternperformance via ebay!)

total 340-350 ish and you will love it....

Thanks. Question, if the speakers are not motorcycle specific, how do they hold up to the weather?

in the fairing - I would not worry too much... you can always put some hydrophobic fabric between the fairing and the speaker... In fact I am running some tests now with different Hydrophobi c sprays and and speaker fabric. there is another thread I started 1-2 weeks ago. once I got the results, I will update.
most of us buy the Cyclesounds fabric but it is pretty expensive (believe 30 bucks). Joe - send me a PM. once I got the results, I can ship you some (if they work well enough) for LESS money than the CycleSounds.

Just for real world verification of AAWAV's comments. I just rode through a couple of torrential downpours with the infinity's and they held up fine. I run em in the upper and lower fairing. Great Speakers!
