Default Bike wont start after amp installed

Just installed a RF 4 channel amp and 4 new speakers. Everything buttoned up. Music is playing. Went to start bike, it tries to turn over but wont start. Has anyone experienced this? Any ideas?

Sounds like a drained battery, what is battery voltage reading? Do you have a tender you can plug it into for a few hours?

Make sure all the plugins are plugged in the dash or under seat or whatever you had apart go revisit. Check fuses.

Did you make sure to fully recouple the fuel disconnect on the bottom of your tank?

I am assuming that it is turning over but no start. Did you fully follow the procedure in the FSM. or did you do it like I do and just pop off the quick disconnect?

Yep happened to me. I had forgotten to reconnect the gas tank fuel plug on bottom of tank. Thought I’d messed up something bad. Check that.
