I did this install yesterday on a 2014 SG and I must say I'm a little disappointed in the performance of these speakers.
I installed inside the pod as described above. What a PITA getting those pods out was. Anyway, started doing the gains setting by ear per Ultranutz instructions. The speakers had noticeable woofer distortion at very low volume (like 5 bars) with the gain all the way down with the amp in ALL PASS. These speakers either can't handle ANY bass or I have something wrong.
I eventually had to put it in HP with the frequency set around 120hz to get it as loud as I like it. The gain around 5'ish.
I did run a remote wire since I was in there and its easy.
I'm going to get flashed for 1 amp when I go in for my 1k service to see if it helps.
Don't get me wrong, the speakers are clearer than the stock garbage but they don't blow me off the bike like I was expecting. At 80mph they're better, but just a little.
Can you guys share your settings? Thanks.

I will try the hp setting and see how that sounds

Can you verify my polarity findings?
Right side, Pink +, Pink/Blk stripe -
Left Side, Pink/Orange +, Pink/Grey stripe -
Is that correct?

Here's some more pictures of how I installed the Infinity Kappa 62.11i's in the pods. Before putting them back into the bike I put some weather stripping around the holes to seal it and also create a tunnel with no gaps for the sound to come through.
***Note the position of the speaker terminal block, it only fits in the pod one way.

I just purchased a 2015 Street Glide Special this week. After reading through this forum, I've already ordered the RF PBR300x2 and Infinity Kappa 62.11i's for the fairing. My question is, if I mount these speakers on the outside of the speaker pod, can I use the grills that came with the speakers or do I need to purchase Harley's Boom grills?

I bought the boom grills, but the speakers are still too tight between the pods and the inner fairing in my opinion. I'm in the process of installing these now, but will try this inner method next. This looks better.

One piece of advise, test the sound quality of your speakers when complete and see if you can hear any difference between inside vs outside mounting...
