Guyz , I know how much they cost new,,, I will hook up my new speakers electronically before I mount them and see how they work

They are polk 5.5 inh and I know where they would fit as I measured an area

Lots of baggers out there mount subwoofer as well some on the top lid, Mine will face in towards the inside front area

I can think of 2 things here that you should consider. Speakers that small are not going to reproduce low frequencies very well, and the higher the frequency, the more it should point directly to your ears.

I installed the rear speakers facing in 5 1/2 polks and mounted a GM3500T Pioneer am p to run them .. My front deck set up is from Ron's Motorcycle shop. All the connections are RCA jacks meaning that when I do remove the bags or that trunk for maintenance no wires to cut.
JBC KD-X310BT Marine quality deck
Polk 4.5 in fairing
Polk 5.5 in bags
GM3500T pioneer amp

Get a Scala rider .. or simular setup in your helmet. Then you have music (bluetooth) phone call notification, intercom with your wife, FM radio and what ever else the system does. The speakers in the helmet is the way to go .. then we all don't have to listen to your tunes!!
