Question for the audio gurus
I'm currently in the middle of a complete audio overhaul on my 2015 Street Glide Special. I'm looking for some advice on the best way to wire my set up. Hi Level input vs. rca.

Not even close to being a guru, BUT, you will get better, cleaner sound every time by using good quality RCA connectors.
Please correct me if I am wrong, professionals.

So RCA is the way to go. Got it. Thanks for the feedback.
Now, next question. Down the road I’m looking at doing some speakers in the bags. That’s why I’m running the 2 amps. Thinking ahead. What do you guys recommend as far as that goes? 2 or 4 6x9’s or a subwoofer kit? I’ve read that you can’t hear the subs above 40 mph so it would almost be a waist unless I was sitting in a parking lot. How about the 6x9’s? Or some good 6.5’s?

First, I'm not any guru by any means and you are right. You wont be able to hear subs in the bags going down the road. As far as lid speakers a set of 6.5 wont give you any bass regardless of how good they are. One set of quality 6x9's in the lids will give you good bass at lower speeds and all the mids/highs you need going down the road. In my opinion, 2 sets of 6x9 in the lids is over kill as 1 set of quality 6x9's is plenty to rock your tunes.
