As long as you stay with 2ohm speakers you'll be fine with that amp. Not enough ooomph to push 4ohms.

Good deal... better than stock, no flash, and hopefully on par with Boom amps and upgrades... should I leave the line levels as bt sets them or should I expect some system tuning?

Leave BT355 at default settings. But I do think ur gonna regret that amp longer term. 2 ohm Speaks can be a very limiting factor.

Do this once brother.

I would not buy the amp wiring kit you listed from Amazon because it only includes 3 feet of ground cable. You could ground it somewhere under the fairing but it's well proper to run the ground directly to the negative post on battery which most everyone would recommend doing. Look up Kustomcycles on eBay. He sells an amplifier wiring kit that includes very nice quality cables for power and ground as well as decent speaker cable and includes more than enough to wire your bike. I used his kit when I did my install and was very happy with it. It will cost more, but it will be worth it. I have no affiliation to the seller I mentioned, only my first hand experience with his kit. It was the only motorcycle purpose amp wiring kit I could find that had what I needed. You will need some extra speaker cable for your rear speakers though, but this kit will get you setup for doing the power/ground and the front fairing speakers.

The B52 is a great amp and I am sure the B54 is as well but be aware that it's capable of 80 watts RMS x 4 @ 4ohm. That may not be enough to satisfy you if you end up with 4 ohm speakers.
