I could get excited about these speakers myself but what happens when they get wet? I see no mention of having a marine rating.

They are car speakers not a Marine application.
I'm comfortable with the materials their made with and the wires and exposed coils are coated.
No component speaker likes water sprayed into the mid and tweeter directly. With these behind the shelter and speaker batting behind, I have no concen.
I also don't wash the bike at the car wash with high pressure hose.
And it does rain up here a bit.
If they were Marine rated, I doubt they'd be at this price point. They have a good guarantee otherwise.

Did you have to modify any of the bike's speaker connections; for these speakers?
Will,
To be honest, I ran all new wires when I added my amp and cannot remember what the oem terminals were like.
I thought they are universal female spade connections whereby the large spade is positive + and the small negative.
Should be ok using oem wires and connections unless you make a significant amp change.

Where is the OEM crossover? In the amp? If so, new wires will have to be run to utilize the crossover in the JBLs.
