Did you try installing the kappas? I was told the 62.11i will fit the rear pods, but that you'd need to do a little wiring to make them work.

The 2014 and up speaker pods are different, and the kappas would not fit in mine, e bay has a spacer from v twin audio that will allow the kappas to fit but the spacer is 89.99, I will be changing my speakers and would like a reasonable priced drop in speaker as well, mine will be amped by a pbr 300x2( don't want to hi jack)

Are they plug and play or do you need to rewire to run them with an amp?

J&Ms also work well, especially if you add an amp ,,, featured here http://www.jmcorp.com/ProductDetail....URK-6652TW-RXX ,,,,,,

Basically run the existing rear speaker wires to the speaker side of the amp. . . Piece of cake!

The only rear 2 ohm speaker worth installing in the rear pods are the Infinity's and I'm told they won't fit in a 14 without an adapter. Now JM John claims to have a nice 2 ohm speaker for the 14's ($390 Bucks) but I have not heard them. I don't t like to recommend anything I have not installed and listened to myself. The only "other" 2 ohm speaker are the Booms.

J&Ms ROKKER XX 2-ohm speaker kit is pretty cool for the rear trunk pod position on the 2014-2015 Ultras ,,, all plug-n-play, and includes spacers and custom grills http://www.jmcorp.com/ProductDetail....URK-6652TW-RXX ,,,,,,,

not sure what else I can do to it to make it perfect for this application, other than possibly a religious blessing from some of the folks here on HD-Forums ,,,,,,,
