Probably something simple that we've overlooked.

If possible. Throw another amp at it and see if you got sound.

Never thought to try that. I will do that when i get home. One other thing does the remote wire on amp have to be wired to the wire on radio harness or can it go to anh 12v like cig lighter.

Is it possible battery is only putting enough power out to turn it on but not enough to power the speakers. I charged it for 24 hours and it started right up but still no sound. Does it need charged even more than that

Check voltage when the bike is running at the amp with a DMM and see what you get

Why would you not want the REM hooked to the HU if you have that option? It gives you the ability to turn off the HU AND the amp should you get caught in a flood.

If you have enough power to turn on the HU you should have sound. I'm thinking there's an issue with the amp.
