5 1/4 speakers are what you need.

Lonewolf, which Pyle units did you get. I am looking for 4 for the WOC fairing.

Make sure your fairing takes the 5 1/4" speakers, a lot of the newer fairing have switched to 6 1/2".
I have the 5 1/4" Pyle speakers and I think they are junk. Im on my second set after two years. The only good thing about them is that I only paid $15.00 a pair for them. Ive blown two of them and the cone has torn on one so far.

I bought these speakers for my new fairing . Rode around for the weekend before removing for paint. Sounded great till I hit 70. Mine had to be 5" speakers. Do a search for marine speakers. I found a lot in short order on the net.

I would strongly recommend Polk DB speakers. Whether the say it or not, their speakers are made to marine standards. I've had mine for 4 years now, ridden in the rain a few times, and wash the bike often, and have had no problems with them. And BTW, they sound great. Polk's 5 1/4" speaker is called "Polk DB521".
