Subwoofer?

Having said that, if you want bass you need another amp. Those amps will not cut it, and if you add the 602's those amps will not cut it either. They are 75w peak at 2ohm to the woofer and tweeter. It's a play on numbers to get to the 300 mark. If you add the 602's which are 4ohm that will drop that power in half on those amps and that surely isn't enough for those speakers.
The Boom II upgrade sounds pretty good, if you want bass I would add a set of 6X9's in each bag but 100% they need to be amplified and an aftermarket amp will run you 100-150 bucks. You have a nice bike, to get some decent bass it's worth an extra 150 bucks to do it right.
You mentioned Daytona, I'm down in Miami. If you need a hand let me know. That's a 1 day install.

Wow . . I was just looking at that bike! Very nice bike. re-thinking your set up it's going to be difficult to get 6x9's in the 16 lids. If it were me I think I would simply change all the speakers and get a more powerful amp with the BT line levelers. Sadly in order to get more bass that's what you have to do.
As haze said, Even if you add a sub in one bag your amps do not have enough power to push it. A nice set up for your bike with plenty bass would be:
Amp: Soundstream 1000D
Speakers: Fairing & Lowers - 2 sets of Moto 602's
Lids - Set of JL C5 570x speakers.
The JL's and the Moto's are both bass heavy speakers and have excellent clarity with the 1000D. Wire the Moto's in parallel on the front channel and run the JL's alone on the back channel. You'll be a happy man with that set up.

LOL!! Dam it Man!! Trying to keep up with this new stuff is killin me! Okay back to the drawing board! One set of Moto's in the fairing. JL's in the lids off the 1000D amp. Still going to be a major difference over the BOOMS!

That's nice of you. I'm actually in Vero Beach and I bought this one at Space Coast in Palm Bay. I thought the new Stage II on CVO's was 300 watts each amp, one front, one rear?
I met a guy yesterday at Space Coast on a toy run who had 6 602's in his back bags. Anyway, I am more confused than ever They sounded good though!
Here's where I am at, maybe you can tell me what you think?
Guys who did the 602's mentioned above can put a sub in but cutting those new bags.... Leap of faith. What he mentioned was the speakers aren't housed well in the fairing so I could do front 602's, make sure they are insulated and see if that adds some bass.
Just don't know, an additional amp plus sub seems like the easier route. I don't know if the 602's are compatible, if they will actually give me some bass or if I can replace the rears and do the same thing. At this point it sounds like I would need new amps and crossovers and I don't want to gut the entire system on a brand new bike.
During the ride yesterday I had to turn my stereo down. Frankly, the Boom stuff just sounds like crap. Some songs are ok, but a lot of what I listen to comes with so many highs it literally pains me to listen. And that with bass all the way up and treble all the way down.

That's a really nice bike, I was at Space Coast Harley near Daytona recently checking those out.
