are these speakers water proof, will be using on motorcycle fairing

Yes they are water proof, but to a certain extent. You dont want them getting soaked all the time.

They are marine certified. They will work great in a motorcycle as long as they fit

They are marine rated. Meaning they will survive in a wet environment. They are not waterproof per say. I have them in my motorcycle fairing. Not all that pleased with the sound so far. Looking at other speakers currently.

These are NOT a sealed unit.....The rain would more than likely either be amplified to the point it would bother you or to a point it shut the sound off. I wouldn't use them in the rain

Yes we have these on the roof of our houseboat and they are exposed to all the weather. Great sounding speakers.

They are not specifically "marine" speakers but they are made of materials that will not be affected by moisture. Salt water is another story though.

I don't see why not, They sound good, I have a 1000 w. amp that pushes these and 6 other 6" speakers. the only thing that makes them different is the material is weather resistant not water proof.

As long as they're not directly exposed to the rain or snow I wouldn't see why not. Temperature changes and moisture would probably cause some harm but my guess is that they'd last at least several years. If in doubt buy outdoor speakers.

I have a set mounted on my Jeep, they are waterproof, and should not have issues with getting wet.

They are marine rated. This means they can get wet but not submerged. We installed twelve of these in our boat last year and have no complaints. Make sure you do the math on the amp so that the speakers are getting enough power.

This speaker isn't designed to be exposed to direct water contact; so I would buy some waterproof speakers made for an outdoor environment. Do a search for marine speakers you will find some at a reasonable price.

Our speakers were installed in a cooler and run off of a marine battery. We use it when we go canoeing. Our canoe was flipped and the cooler was floating down the river still playing music. They still work even after that. We have not had any problems. So in my opinion YES they are water proof!

Not sure that they are waterproof, but they are submersible. I put them on my boat trailer and they work great.

Waterproof implies you could submerge the speakers - you can't. I would prefer to describe them as "weatherproof". Just be sure to install them in a way which does not allow water to mass into the open end of the speaker component of the bullet. I've used mine in all kinds of weather and haven't had an issue with the bullets exposed on my FLHRC.. I would not consider the amp weatherproof at all - it needs to be in a weatherproof bag or shell...

I don't think you should use these outside. They would not be protected from the elements.They may last a year or two days depending on how wet they got. Polk Audio sells outside speakers for all seasons. Unfortunately the don't recess but they sound great.

Yes they are rainproof. I use them on my motorcycle with the jacket for a rain suit.

they can actually I have used them in my motorcycle without fairings I'm distrust you sir seems to be holding up really well, I have taken rides when the bike would get all wet and these things seem to hold up just fine.

The speakers are but the AMP is not, mine has gotten wet when washing my bike on several occasions and stopped working completely. However after a day or so of drying out it worked again. Just not while it was still damp.

I would think so. If you're worried about them getting wet these are weatherproof speakers. I've had them out through some pretty bad storms and they work just as well as they did when I took them out of the box. As for the connection if that's what you're asking I would go to a local Radioshack and see if they have the type of connector for that specific radio. I currently have them on an Insignia shelf top radio and they work amazing!! Hope this helps you out.
